Yarn Wrapped Wine Bottles

I have been looking on Pinterest to find ideas for my new living room and I came across this pin. I loved the idea and wanted to incorporate my new colors using this idea. I saved old wine bottles and did my best to strip them of their labels. Some residue was still left over, but most of the label was gone. I actually had to soak one in water for a bit first before the label would scrape off. Once the wine bottles were ready, all I needed was:

1. Mod Podge glue

2. Yarn

3. Buttons/Accessories

4. Foam Brush

I started with the wine bottle turned upside down and used the foam brush to put a layer of glue on the wine bottle. 



I then worked the yarn tightly and carefully across. Once I reached the curve of the bottle, I skipped the yarn over to the neck and did that first before then finishing down the curve of the bottle. 


Once the bottle was completely wrapped, I cut the yarn and glued the stray piece to what I would have be the back of the bottle. Once all the bottles were done, I let them dry for a while.



I used buttons and yarn to spell out "love" and finished it off with some sweet little white flowers. 



I think it will really add something to my living room! :)
