ALTERED BOTTLES

Anther class I took with Joni Russell was altered bottles. Love this class. We solider a bottle and then got to add found treasure for the inside. I used an vintage envelope deep in wax to attach it to the bottle. I have a hanging mermaid on the inside and used a shell for the stopper. Aged ribbon and chains added more to the bottle. (Some of my treasure in side the bottle are sea shell, rusty screen, old wire, shredded vintage dictionary pages and some glitter.)
After this bottle was soldier-I added some treasures-shredded dictionary pages, aged ribbon, rusty screen, and added a hanging crystal inside the bottle. I waxed some lace to attach to the bottle. Also some aged ribbon for the stopper. I used a handle from a silver knife and a vintage rhinestone to to top.
