I'm happy to post another finished project from my collection of "things I started but didn't finish".
Take an empty bottle from the trash and start the transformation. I started by soldering bands on the bottle to add a little interest. Added an old crocheted heart and an old tool handle for the stopper.
I like being able to see the writing on the postcard through the bottle. I placed a few beads and shredded book pages in the bottle as well as a filigree dohickey suspended by beads from the wooden stopper.No bottle is safe from me now. I had put this one aside to make about 20 or so bottles for a witches' apothecary that I had displayed in my kitchen for Halloween. You don't get to see those until next October!!
