Slumped Wine Bottles


yay! I had my wine bottles slumped and just got them back today. Now I can decorate them a bit, add the "wino" touch, then include a cheese spreader to each and sell them as cheese trays. I really how the Little Black Dress bottle turned out!

ShowMe Etsy Street Team Trunk Show!

New idea

So another Etsian in our Team gave me this cute pendant that was a cluster of grapes. I fell in love with it and wear it quite often. She was kind to send me the link, and I ordered 7 different colors of the grape clusters made of cubic zirconia beads. So I was racking my brain to make these into something The Crafty Wino would sell. They came on a black rope, but I wanted to add my Wino touch to it...

After hunting at several stores, here is what I came up with!
I really like it. The spiraling vines add a fun dimension to the necklace. The memory wire has a strong magnetic clasp and is 18" in length. Now to figure out price~~~
