CRAFTY MONDAY- WINE and/or  SPIRITS EMPTY BOTTLES REPURPOSED SERIES: Bottle #2

​This is my second recycled-repurposed bottle post for this series.  Remember, the whole idea of this series is to help a bit in keeping these bottles out of our land fields.
For today’s project I used an empty bottle of whiskey. The whole cost to make it was 75 cents. Would look nice in a home bar as decoration, don’t you think?
  
These are the bottle materials: Total Cost (.75)
1 empty whiskey bottle (0)
½ yard of beige ribbon, no craft wire was needed for the bow, as I used my husband’s 2 fingers like back in the day to make it! ha-ha! (.60)
1 handful of acorns (there are plenty on your streets now, free! (0)
Hot glue or regular glue for attached the acorns and the ribbon (.15)


Directions
  • Get the empty bottle, wash it well inside and remove the labels. I keep the label dry and pour super-hot water, allow it to sit few minutes and then start to peel the label. If that doesn’t work, then submerge the bottle in hot water and let it sit for a while to detach it from the bottle. Allow it to dry completely, inside and out.
  • Measure, cut and attach the ribbon using hot glue.
  • Make a bow and attach it to the bottle neck with hot glue.
  • Glue the acorns to the bottle and allow to dry. You made a pretty bottle for .70 cents.
