Recycled Iced Coffee Bottles

Hi Friends,

I'm working on some last minute crafts for my upcoming boutique.

These sell out each and every time so I thought I would share this idea with you.

First..... We need some bottled coffee-

any kind you prefer


How about Pumpkin Spice Iced Latte? YUM!

One for me - one for you......

Wouldn't it be nice to share a coffee together?





That was good!

Then I removed the labels-

I used white chalk paint to cover the outside of the bottles.

These stencils were made with a scrap of mylar,

and my drawing cut with an x-acto-knife.






I used cobblestone grey for my farm animals.





 After the paint was dry 


I used sand paper to remove paint in some areas.




 Then I brushed on clear wax to seal.









Add some fresh flowers and it can be a thoughtful gift to a friend.


Since these are drink bottles- they fit perfect in the car cup holder 

for easy transport if you are bringing flowers to a friend!


They are  so budget friendly!



Thanks for visiting!

  3. I used to make similar vases with the twine tops. They were super popular! Its a fun reason to drink glass bottled coffee! I like your idea of painting stencils on the outside. Very cute.

    1. There's some much you can do with these. My Dollar Tree sells the iced coffee for a dollar..so it's really a money maker at the craft fair :) xo Lisa S
