I love to make things especially from recycled things. I want to make a necklace or keychain from a bottle cap because I saw some cute ones online. I have a dozen bottle caps... things is, I'm 16 & not supposed to have smirnoff bottle caps in the first place. I guess I could cover the back with a sticker if I make something for my bf but how do I get it by the parents?
Having the caps for a craft project and actually drinking the drink are two completely different things. So, as long as you and your boyfriend aren't the ones consuming the alcoholic beverage that the caps came from, there shouldn't be any problems.
Still, cover the logo of any caps from any alcohol. It would be frowned upon everywhere for a teenager to wear a piece of jewelry bearing a name of a drink that is illegal for them to consume. [ Brandi_S's advice column | Ask Brandi_S A Question ]
