For the crafty wine-lovers…

Easily turn wine bottles, soda bottle, or beer bottles into beautiful wall vases, or use them as table markers at any wedding or special event. Take an empty wine bottle, fill it with the flowers of your choice, peel off the original wine bottle label, and put your own custom designed table number sticker in its place!  This makes for a great table centerpiece. You might also consider using unopened bottles of wine (with your custom stickers of course) as your table markers… It gives your guests a little something to fill their glass, and it’s a nice way to thank them for coming.

Here are instructions to walk you through the process…

Things you need:

Nail polish remover
Kitchen string
Lighter
Tub of water
Wine bottle
Safety equipment

1
Assemble the materials necessary for splitting a bottle in half. Make sure to get acetone nail polish remover, as opposed to nonacetone polish remover; without the correct kind of polish remover, the bottle will not split in half. Select a wine bottle, or other large, glass bottle, that you want to split, and peel off any labels from the glass. Clean the project area, whether it be the kitchen, the bathroom, the garage, or any other suitable location. Move large objects to the side, if possible, so they won’t get in the way in the case of an emergency. Put on safety goggles and sturdy, fireproof gloves.

Fill up a bathtub, sink, or large bucket with room-temperature water. Test the water height with the bottle; the bottle should fit comfortably and completely in the water-filled container when rotated either horizontally or vertically, depending on preference. Pour a small amount, an inch or less, of acetone-based nail polish remover into a cup. Wrap cotton kitchen string, also known as butcher’s twine, around the center of the bottle two or three times, cut the string, and tie the string tightly enough to stay secure around the bottle. Slip the loop of string off the bottle, and soak it for several seconds in the acetone.

3
Position yourself over the water. Slip the knotted loop of string back onto the bottle and slide it down the body until it is roughly centered; when put back in the water, the bottle will split where the string is placed, so choose the position carefully and with safety foremost in mind. Grip the neck of the bottle with one hand and hold the bottle away from you, over the water. Pick up the lighter with the other hand and carefully light the acetone-soaked string on fire.

4
Rotate the bottle slowly several times so that the flame travels equally to every part of the string. Wait for around 10 seconds, or until the flame starts to die down. Dunk the bottle into the water, either horizontally or vertically, and hold it under for a few seconds. Listen for the distinctive pops and crackles that indicate separating glass. Lift the bottle out of the water, grip each side of the bottle, and gently pull the two halves apart.

Let’s drink, herb-infused style!

July 12, 2013 by Jenny Walters Leave a Comment

It’s summertime and with all our drink labels in production, it’s making us thirsty! Have you ever tried herb-infused cocktails? You can use herbs from your garden or from your local farmer’s market.

First, let’s start with Bottle Your Brand’s herb of choice — basil. We found these cute Garden Bon Bon’s (see below), made by Moulton. There’s a huge variety, but we’re going with “Slow Drinks Cocktail Garnish.” These bon bon’s are perfect for the chocolate lover and the garden lover…  Really, they’ll trick the eye — so don’t eat these straight from the box!

Plant the Red Clay Truffle piece, and soon you’ll have Italian Large Leaf Basil growing in your garden… Perfect for a basil infused cocktail!

Sold by Paperish Mess in Chicago, Il or check out Moulton’s Etsy Shop

To infuse Vodka:

Add one liter of Vodka to a clean, re-sealable container. Add about two fists full of lightly crushed basil and store in a sealed container away from direct sunlight. Wait three to five days, then strain and enjoy!

These make great gifts for friends and family members… Make your own custom labels at BottleYourBrand.com, and your gifts will look extra special!

1. Try this Berry Splash drink, made with white cranberry juice, cherry mix, and garnished with fresh mint. Click here for the recipe.

2.  Tomato and Watermelon Salad — An unlikely pair, but combine this sweet, juicy watermelon with fresh tomato, onion and a red wine vinaigrette and it’ll be a huge hit at your party!  Click here for the recipe.

3.  Try these  Molasses-Balsamic Steak Kabobs at your party.

4.  We also recommend these delicious sun-dried tomato pesto burgers for your main course. Speciality burgers are a great idea for any holiday party.  See just how to make them, here.

5. Choose between #5 and #6 for your party dessert, or make both!  Star shaped Jell-O desserts are a cinch to make.

6.  Blueberry Cobbler with sugared star shortcakes are just as easy to make and they’re quite pretty too!

 

In addition to recipes, we’re also sharing a few of our favorite simple decorating ideas.  Take a look!
