Sorry this is after Halloween, but I wanted to share it anyways. To compliment a centerpiece I made for my floral design class, I made some spooky vintage Halloween themed bottles. With some vintage labels I found online, you can turn rootbeer bottles into candle holders. To get the candle wax to melt down the bottle, use a razor blade to slice the top as it is burning. This allows a place for the wax to run down the bottle. It did take a while to get the right look, but I just burned them while I was watching tv. They are a little fragile so I am hoping they will hold up for next year.
Where did you find the labels? They are awesome!
ReplyDeleteThe pumpkin as the vase for the centerpiece is a GREAT idea, too!
I've missed your posts! Hope school is great and you guys are toO!
I'll have to remember these for any future halloween parties!
