Male: Bottle cups, what in the crop is this?

Female: This week on how to do things, we are going to show you how to make Bottle cups jewelry. Is that not pretty? Now, one person’s trash is truly another’s treasure. Get an old magazine, a hammer and a nail. Place the bottle cap right side facing up on the magazine and use the hammer and nail to make a hole in the middle. Take the hammer and bottle caps outside, starting with the wrong side facing up, flatten the bottle cap, flip it over and flatten some more.
Now, take out some white paint and paint a base coat on both sides, when they are dry, paint them again with the color of your choice then take out some 20 gauge silver wire and cut off two even pieces. Put one end of the piece of wire through the loop of an earring piece so that one side is longer than the other. Take the wire and loop it through the earring piece one more time to hold it in place.
Thread the shorter end through one of your bottle cups and twist the end of the wire up into a spiral then slide the bottle cup into place. Repeat the other end of the wire and you are done with the first earring.
Finish the second one and you have a new pair of rod earrings. Mad props to Derrick Hendrick, who is sending a picture of the bottle cup earrings he made.
