Vendor Bio: Cappies Creations

Cappies Creations create unique folk art figurines from recycled bottle caps, discarded computer parts and other recovered materials. Cappies, as they are called, bring a wide range of sports, cultural and lifestyle activities to life through the innovative use of these materials. They capture form and movement in a way that belies their humble origin and composition.

The first Cappie was created in 1992. The concept was simple: Use materials that would normally end up in the landfill to create something of artistic value. The result: Little wonders of folk art that reflect the face of our society and a growing environmental awareness.

Cappies are on average 12 inches in height and weigh around two pounds. Each figurine uses a minimum of 54 bottle caps that would otherwise have littered the environment. Our bottle caps are provided mainly by restaurants and pubs.

In addition to their growing range of approximately 60 different figurines, they also do custom work and special orders.  Cappies retail for $30 - $65 CAN.
