If you get bored tonight...

Here is a little idea I stole from ALL over the blog world. Where it originated I have no idea.  I have seen these twine wrapped bottles so many times; I finally just made them one night because I was bored with the TV. I used my 99 cent store twine, and some different shaped wine bottles I had used. Its usually not too hard to collect empty wine bottles around here. ;)    I did this about 2 months ago. Better late then never I guess.


I had saved this small port bottle because I wanted to use it as a flower vase. But the contrasting size was needed, so I stole it from my vase stash. I only took pictures of making the small one, but its not like this is rocket science. It is however, a little time consuming when you are wrapping and wrapping and more wrapping. I just sat on the couch and watched whatever was on while I got my fingers all gluey. Gluey...? Someone should add that to the dictionary, it sounds nice.

Just apply glue in sections of the bottle then start working your way up towards the neck.

The "hardest" part is wrapping it around the neck where it begins to get smaller. The twine seems to want to travel upward and leave big gaps. Mine are is no way perfect, but who cares... this is twine wrapped trash were talkin' about here!

Then I cut some of the "fuzzies" off.

And put them in my china cabinet...
