This is a beer bottle caps lamp that I made for a recycling project at school 2 years ago.

I flattened each cap with a hammer, made tiny holes in each and every one of them and then assembled them with wire.

Took a loooooot of time and my hands were pretty damaged afterwards, but I was very proud when I was finished  Grin

Hope you like it  Wink

Well, I would have to drink all the beer first, so maybe I wouldn't care about all the work at all  Grin
