I had a few Starbucks bottles lying around in the kitchen so I thought I'd do something with it(No, I didn't drink all of that...in case you were wondering). After having used the empty bottles for other home decors, I decided to come up with another idea just using the materials the bottle had. enjoy. thanks :D

Instructions

  1. Small dscf3139 1322191675

    First, you want to have bottles that are clean and have labels (the Sticker/paper that is decorated around the bottle with nutrition facts/titles, etc). These ones are from Starbucks.

  2. Small dscf3144 1322192018

    We want to start by peeling off the labels. Don't throw them away! We'll be making the bow ties out of them.

  3. Small dscf3149 1322193157

    You should have the labels peeled out like this.

  4. Small dscf3150 1322192154

    Take the front label and fold the sides to the center. Imagine a line coming down the middle of the label and fold the sides on the center line.

  5. Small dscf3151 1322192223

    Fold the center of the label in an accordion-like way.

  6. Small dscf3155 1322192313

    Using the back label, cut a strip about 1~2cm. If you're label is big, cut a wider strip.

  7. Small dscf3156 1322192464

    Now, using the strip you just cut, wrap it around the accordion folded label. If the strip you cut out doesn't have a sticker-like bottom, then use a bit of tape to tape it up.

  8. Small dscf3157 1322192591

    Bow tie! Instead of using the labels of your bottle to make the bow, you can always use other materials such as duct tape,fabric, etc.

  9. Small dscf3159 1322192616

    If you have double-sided tape, then use that. But if you don't, then get some clear tape and fold it up so that all sides are sticky.

  10. Small dscf3160 1322192666

    Now you want to stick that on the center of the bow.

  11. Small dscf3161 1322192811

    Stick it on your bottle! I stuck mine on the neck of the bottle.

  12. Small dscf3169 1322192926

    Tada! Your bottle with a bow tie is done. hehe. DECORATE.
