An interesting and fun way to dispose of all those bottle caps that litter the landscape is to turn them into art.

On our beautiful 7-square mile island one can find hundreds of them on the beach or outside the bars after the crowds have had their good time and gone home.

An elderly gentleman invented a magnetic fishing rod (made from discarded pieces of magnet which he attached to sticks) that the kids used to pick up the bottle caps.

We combined the garbage bin project with the bottle cap project. See the end result:
