. . . Painted Patriotic Bottles . . .


My husband was throwing a few bottles away over the weekend and it was a light bulb moment for me to solve a problem I was having completing my Patriotic Mantle.  I thought about the spray paint in my garage and the Washi Tape stash I have and figured I’d make a cute set of Painted Patriotic Bottles. 

I took the labels off the bottles and then spray painted them.  Two were solid colors (one white and one red) and the third I taped off to create a striped bottle.  I then added Washi Tape and Baker’s Twine and a few flowers from the dollar store. 

Super simple but adds some festivity to my mantle.

 • • •
 
 • Gather your supplies--spray paint, clean bottles, washi tape, twine and some flowers
• Spray paint your clean and dry bottles to be the color you want them
• I did one red, one white and one red and white stripe
• I then added washi tape to the bottles and a bit of Baker's Twine to finish it off 

 • I added a few dollar store flowers in red, white and blue to finish off the look

 • • • Red, White & Blue
 
 
• • • Simple & Festive
