Bottle Top Magnets

Here is the exact article I read in Good Housekeeping, June 2010.

Magnetic Personality

We can't bottle our enthusiasm for these fridge magnets, crafted from bottle caps and cute scrapbook papers. Collect unbent caps, paper, a one-inch-round craft punch, a sealant like Mod Podge, magnets, superglue, and clear casting resin (from a crafts store). Punch circles from paper; coat both sides with sealant; put into caps; let dry. Fill with resin, per product instructions; let dry. Glue magnets to caps' backs. 


Updated to add - I hit two thrift stores today and found some frames, along with a nice little basket for the boys' bathroom.  Spent $9.50.  Can't wait to start painting, glazing, and magnet making!!!  I have to find a source for thin steel sheeting to use.
