Graduation Bottle of Bubbly

Hello friends!

I am always looking for ideas to gift graduates besides the

usual cash, I like to add a little something with their card.

So I came up with this idea!

Did you know that Martinelli's makes blush apple cider?

It's soooo tasty!  So I grabbed 4 of these at the store and decided

to make little caps on top.

Went from this above, 

to THIS below!

Up close......

So what do you need to make these?

The yummy apple cider

black crepe paper

a brad

baker's twine

black cardstock

Cut your crepe paper at 4" long

the black square cap cut at 2 1/2" x 2 1/2"

Cut the baker's twine two pieces at 8" and fold in half

use any color brad

First thing you can do it punch a small hole in the 

center of the square cap.

Now take the folded baker's twine and

lay it over the punched hole,

take the brad and push it through the hole and pull

the twine around it.  

Using your adhesive put a little at the bottom

of the crepe paper and wrap around the top of the bottle

and secure the top with the adhesive.

You can see in the picture below how

I wrapped in around the top. 

Your last piece is the cap that you attached

the brad and baker's twine to.

Take the square and hot glue, using just a little

bit of glue, glue it down on top. 

There you have it!

How cute are these!

My plan is to add a card and cash and /or flowers to

gift to the graduates.
