Gifts for Men: Bottle Top Magnets

This is a super quick gift idea for your husband, father, or brother! (I saw it on Pinterest.) My three-year-old helped me make these magnets. I just used glue, some beer bottle tops, and some wooden dowel rods cut into 1/2” slies.

I love repurposing things. My husband likes craft beer, so I saved a few caps. I also have extra supplies to make more after he collects some more special caps.

You could skip the dowel rods pieces if your magnets are thick enough. (Mine weren’t but I didn’t have time to get anywhere to get thicker ones.)
