I am slowly but surely becoming addicted to Craigslist. I search it all the time and get way too excited when I think I have scored a good deal. The other day I found someone selling these old vintage bottles, for a buck a bottle. I was like a kid on Christmas morning!
Now I know what you are thinking, she is crazy they are dirty and just old. I knew with a little TLC these bottles could be collectively a great accent piece. All they needed was a little love, like Charlie Brown’s Christmas Tree. So I cleaned them up and spray painted them with valspar cream.
Next I had three different types of twine which I hot glued around the bottles.
I continued this with the rest of the bottles, seven in total. Here is the final product.
I am really happy with how they turned out! You don’t have to be addicted to Craigslist to recreate these. Simply use bottles you would normally recycle like wine bottles, jam jars, or sparkling water bottles.
Genius! They turned out great!
Wow, love this!
Beautiful. Would have cost a fortune if you had bought them!
