Once again my youngest daughter has amazed me with her craftyness. It all started with Lynnie needing a bottle to put her lavendar in with olive oil. I had gone craft shopping yesterday at a couple new stores I hadn't been in, and found some neat looking bottles with corks in them. I picked out a small jar that would work for the herbs, and brought it home waiting for Lynnie to come by. Last nite Lynnie stopped by and got busy with her project, once I showed her what I had picked up. With food coloring, cotton ball, mod podge, glitter and a brush she went to work. Her sister, Carol (best friend adopted by all of us) and I watched as she proceeded to tear the cotton ball apart and drop pieces of it into the food coloring. After soaking the cotton for a few minutes in the food coloring Lynnie then took the strips and laid them on the bottle in no particular design. She then used the mod podge to seal the cotton to the jar, and sprinkled some of my fine glitter over it all. Once her herb infused olive oil is ready she will put it into her neatly designed bottle and cork it. This idea can be used on most any bottle, even wine bottles, after soaking off the labels, to create a bud vase or just a fancy decor. Another way to make jars/bottles decorative is to use simulated stain glass paint on them. I did this one year for Christmas gifts, adding in a package of potporri to put into the jar, and tying a ribbon around as well on some.
