Threading a needle can sometimes be frustrating, especially if you’re working with tiny needles or finicky thread. But there’s a simple trick that can make the process easier and quicker, and all you need is a bottle cap! This clever hack can save you time and stress the next time you’re sewing.
What You’ll Need:
A plastic or metal bottle cap
A needle
Your sewing thread
Instructions:
Prepare the Bottle Cap:
Take any plastic or metal bottle cap (the kind you would typically find on water bottles, soda bottles, or juice containers).
It doesn’t matter what size the cap is, as long as it’s sturdy and fits comfortably in your hand.
Create a Small Hole:
Using a sharp object like a pin or needle, carefully poke a small hole in the center of the bottle cap. This hole should be big enough to fit the needle through but small enough to hold the thread taut.
Position Your Needle:
Place your needle with its eye (the small hole) facing the hole in the bottle cap.
Hold the bottle cap firmly so that the eye of the needle is aligned with the hole you just created.
Thread the Needle:
