LESSology and ME :)

 So happy for today because I'm a guess at LESSology
 For those of you who don't know, the challenge this time around is....

 This is how my project started
with some Sparkling cider bottles.
 First step is to clean them up real good.  Inside and Out!
Get some goo gone girls.  It's the best for taking off the stickies.
 What's next?  Well the last step.
Jazz it up!
I used Stdio Calico pattern paper, wood veneers and stamps colored with water color pencils.
 Here they are.  To make them sturdy you just have to pour some sand into the bottles.  
This project is super fast, easy, cheep and FABULOUS!
 See my post HERE

Great idea on the bottles.... Yikes on them been as bookends, as long as the books can stand on its own and not having those bottles fall and causing some unforseen injuries.... LOL! As long as the kiddies stay away !!!!
