I saved a couple of bottles from my Holiday in March in the Peak District. I liked their shape and thought one day I will decorate them. I started one a few weeks ago but have to admit I did not know what I was doing. I stuck some printed paper on the bottle and when dry painted it red and added some golden trim.
That was a far as I got . I hated it, so stuck it in the corner with the pile of ‘I’ll finish them one day.’
Well today was that day. Still didn’t have a clue what to do. So I got out my distress paints and in particular gold painted it. It still l look dreadful, no picture I’m afraid. What next I thought! Frantage! I used the shabby blue around the collar.
I added some lace and ribbon and stuck some gems around. I also added a sentiment which say Dare To Dream! Live Every day From the Hear.
I think it ended up better than it started but I still need lots of practice lol. Thank you for visiting
I’m going to enter this into the challenges at Arty Inklings and Craft Stamper take make it Challenge

I agree with Massofhair, the transformation is amazing and beautiful too! I'm hoping to have a go at the Arty Inklings challenge this week but OH goes into hospital tomorrow so between walking the dog, visiting hospital plus the usual stuff of checking on Mum, etc. I could well be too ko'd in the evenings. If I can achieve something half as lovely as yours for my first attempt I shall be well pleased.HugsLesley Xx

Great transformation Debs! I love the idea of doing more altered art but a bit like you it's well out of my comfort zone. Always good to try new things though and it's great when they work out.Emma x
