Bottle caps are one of those things that many of us save, knowing that one of these days we're going to figure out something clever to do with them. By now, you just may have a bag full of them, waiting to be turned into something. We've brought up a few good ideas for them, from game pieces to jewelry, but if none of those crafts have struck your fancy, how about making something really clever and vintage, like a crocheted trivet!

Keith's Bottle Cap Trivet is a great pattern for taking scrap yarn and scrap caps, and making something eye-catching, unique and useful out of them. The pattern is simple, and you have total designers freedom for the shapes and color patterns you create.

Put on your creative cap, take up some bottle caps, and make something cool for something hot.
