It’s a unique way of upcycling bottle caps that normally would find their way into the trash. You will hammer bottle caps flat and attach them with small nails to a wooden fish form David will provide. The overlapping bottle caps create the effect of fish “scales.” Your resulting fish sculpture will measure 21″ long by 3 1/2″ wide, a real “keeper.” All tools will be provided.
Class size 10
Student Supply List Bring a hammer and favorite bottle caps if you have some, plus any other interesting objects to attach to personalize your creation.
