Jack Daniels meets a Vintage Affair


I have finally finished my first Vintage Affair Challenge, in which you were required to alter a wine bottle. Well, since I don't always follow the rules and have never been a fan of wine... I decided to alter an old friend JACK DANIELS(I didn't drink it by the way) I loved the shape of it and it looks beautiful!

I alcohol inked the top (which is plastic) and added a little 7 Gypsy's. The tassel was bought at Tuesday Morning. I added lace and beads to give it a feminine feel to it. The lace was Glimmer Misted since I only had white.

I covered the bottle with Cosmo Cricket paper (Ever after) and used the G45 Line Le Romantique Line, a little Tim Holtz, Paperdrama Flowers and Prima. I have been watching Youtube thanks to Joanne and I have just learned so many new techniques.



I really like how it came out, now Lady Dei will fill it with pennies to finish it off. Off to my next project ... G45 is calling again.

I loved this bottle when I saw it on the Graphic 45 ring. It's stunning! And so many ingenious ways to romanticize it. I love the paradox of so many romantic touches on a Jim Beam bottle. Now you've given me an idea of what to do when the Absinthe is all gone. I didn't want to throw that bottle away and now it can do double duty. I love the idea of your daughter using it to save pennies - the copper will put it over the top!
