Bottle Lid Cow Head

I was looking through one of those home and garden magazines.  I saw a great orange kitchen with the prerequisite blackboard wall.  What really caught my eye was a glimpse of a very colourful cow head.  It reminded me of those Chicago sculptures.  Anyway, this magazine happened to be the unhelpful kind that doesn't have a detailed index at the back listing all the objects in each photo.   So I scanned it to zoom in for a better look, but as you can see it is still only a scan of a tiny image.

However, google came to the rescue.  These cow heads are all over the place.  There I was thinking the head is a folded plate or something, and really it is a bottle cut up.  Cool!  See here.

So now I have to start collecting bottle lids.  We only have blue ones so I'll have to start the children on other milk instead.  I just won't tell Plunket.

Milk bottle seal Outdoor Christmas decorations

Inspired by one of the displays at last years Franklin Road lights, I have decided to collect milk bottle seals.  I also have a peanut butter jar one and another one from some jar as they have the silver plastic lining too.  So if you're interested, start collecting and we can make something later on this year for Christmas garden/fence decorations.

Start collecting milk bottle seals.  Can also be found in various sizes: think peanut butter jars, mayonnaise, juice etc.
