Bottle Top Thimble - closeup of gem on thimbleYou know those little tops on hairsprays and other styling products? I found one on the washer one day, put it on my finger, don't ask why, and thought, hey, this is just like a thimble!:) You just need to dress it up a bit before using. It works great and is way prettier than the thimbles I actually bought.
