If your New Years party left you with a trash can filled with beer caps you could create this fun project! I found this on Pinterest via Amy Riggleman. All you need is a hammer and some glue to create a decor item for your home bar or a fun gift for the beer lover in your life.

I am ringing in the New Year with 31 Days of the most uniquely decorated wooden letters on the Internet.
When I set out to find 31 letters, I was instantly amazed by the variety and creativity. I found letters decorated with everything from simple paints and stains to recycled toys and lights to smashed beer caps and wine bottle cork. And, I am sure I haven’t seen it all. I can’t wait for more inspiration in 2014.
