Mr.U&I have decided to make mosaics out of beer caps on our three end tables. We started with the simple thought of random caps all thrown together… then we started “throwing them together” and, of course, the need for more specific designs became painfully apparent. Mr.U loved the orange Oberon caps the best and I like the Heineken&SummerShandy – all options we seemed to have the fewest of. What we had plenty of her domestic brews – Bud Light, Miller Light, Molson, Corona, etc… so we came up with some concepts. A Domestic Table – simply straight rows. And an Irish Table – blacks, whites, Heineken&Oberon. A Clusterfuck Table incorporating all the random caps my brother had collected for us at his bar in downtown Chicago, which could easily be completed. The other two we had to plan out how many of each beer we’d need to drink in order to fill our empty spaces – and [guesswhat] it was a lot of beers. So, I had the brilliant idea of asking for bottle caps at a local bar after we stopped for drinks. The bartender happily gave me a bucket and requested to see the tables once they’ve been completed.
So, now we’ve basically got “white capped” beers left to drink – we’re slowly discovering the few options we have for those and attempting to down at least one nightly so our tables can be show-off-able sooner rather than later.
