If I could save time in a bottle...

 Remember the Prior Lives Party begins June 16th...This bottle once held some liquid in a prior life, but now it displays items  While decorating~


I like to make button bouquets.. and embellish bottles...This bottle says its from Houston, Tex, so of course I like that about it.
This could hold a photo, recipe,  card or

... how cool would they be  used to hold place cards at a wedding or rehesal dinner,  a girl's night in or Sunday School party...I LOVE old bottles and with a little bling, what's not too love...You could put an old note or pearls or shredded paper in it too.               See ya' Soon, Lezlee

This is precious Lezlee! I love old bottles too...started a bottle tree with some old soft drink bottles I bought at a yard sale. Love your creation!
So did I miss the potting table Josh made? Going searching for it:-)

I love old bottles too. Also got some at a garage sale and made a wind chime out of them. This so easy and cute. I've got to try it.

Lezlee, I love how you accessorize these old pieces. You truly have a touch for just how much will work. It ends up looking so unique and fun. I love it!

Lezlee, thank you so, so much for sharing this post at "A Little Birdie Told Me..." This project is right up my alley with the vintage bottles and the way you embellished them so beautifully! I love the idea of using them as placecards. The trio of bottles with the photos is simply inspired and so whimsical!!!
