Aussie for a day

Working away on Mara's B-day present. Here are some pics of the progress:
I am going to finish the "sky" part with silver caps—I hope I have enough!!!

After I finish this I have to search for 18 more Sam Adams Summer caps to finish off a set of coasters I'm making for my friend Kim.

Then making as many coaster sets as I can for the benefit next weekend! Wish I had a fish to donate, but don't think I could make one in such a short amount of time, not with having to work as well.

I've found that with Mara's project it really hasn't taken as long as I thought it would and I think that's because I'm not crimping the edges so that the caps overlap each other like I did in the fish. Getting the right sized nails (not ones that go through the back then need to be cut off) has also been a HUGE time saver! Think I'll do a new fish after these projects are out of the way.

I have four new Australian caps for you, the first two are mystery caps, so any help there would be great! The last two are Toohey's Extra Dry 5 Seed Cider, and Fanta
