Vases- display cool bottles with labels that you like in a row with cute
flowers. You can even tint the glass by simply using floor polish and food
coloring.

is attached to a door wreath hanger. Attach it to the back of a chair and you
can put each guests name on the bottle with a cute tag or chalkboard vinyl.

birthdays and holidays by decorating them with vinyl or wrapping with doilies
or fabric and twine. You can also create photo labels with a laminator.

Party Invitation- Turn a bottle into a cute invitation for an old fashioned ice-
cream social!

Desk Organizer- Label jars and fill with push pins, rubber bands, paperclips,
etc.
