OK....After scouring stores & home, I came up with the material for the chimenys' caps....Wet sandpaper #320.... 
Turns out it's pliable enough to shape, and strong enough to withstand the handling. And since no one is going to be climbing on top of them, it'll do.... Take into account the "blank" is the size of a dime....
Here's a couple of pics of the caps and tools involved. I glued the piece of sandpaper to a dime using contact cement, and after a little while, cut out the shape with scissors. I sanded the blank still attached to the dime to get it to be perfectly round. I then removed it and made the cut from the center out, and glued the "pie" together. I used the little "clamp" to hold the joint until the glue dried. Now they're ready to paint....
