Gifting a Bottle of Wine

Here’s a quick idea if you’re bringing a bottle.

 

Roll it up in some fabric (or a bandana, napkin, handkerchief or tea towel), tie string or yarn around the neck and hang some buttons for fun.

 

Place cute kitty behind.

Happy weekend!

Yum!! Malbec, my favourite.
I think it's personal touches like this that makes a gift more special. Plus, the lucky receiver gets a cute usable piece of fabric.
I often tend to use a pretty tea towel to wrap a gift of baked goods. A towel can also be quickly turned into a bread bag when it's a big crusty loaf.
Love the B/W photos.

Awww!!! She honors her name, Mini! She's the same size as the bottle and so sweet :-)!

How I wish Mini could be wrapped up & sent to me :p

That looks so nice! But always, always remember to include a card that says "Cute kitty not included" ;)

I like the buttons idea. How do you secure the fabric at the bottom so it doesn't unfold (tape?) or is the piece of fabric big enough to put the bottle in the middle of it and just gather to corners at the top?
Have a nice weekend!

[Dusa]

So glad Mini isn't part of the gifting - :D

Love the button idea!

Mini seems upset though that you're giving away her bottle of wine.

[Beth Khoundara]

Ha! Great idea, though Mini doesn't seem too pleased to be in the photo! :)

[Kim Taylor]

It is as if Mini is saying, "I dare you not to love this lovely gift of wine." She looks very serious about her gift-giving. :)

Ha! didn't know they have CLEAR duct tape. I am only coming to terms now with colourful duct tape. Wonder what Red Green (a Canadian comedian with a show where the silver duct tape featured almost as one of the main characters) would say about that :-). Anything is possible with a little duct tape (according to Red Green).

Igår låg jag länge i sängen och roade mig med att läsa igenom en hel massa av din gamla inlägg och blev så otroligt inspirerad! Jag har nu städat, rensat och organiserat en massa skåp i köket! :)

Tack för det!
