Most crafts on Pinterest I immediately reject because they look too hard. Every now and then, though, I see one that looks like I might be able to manage it, and I immediately have the desire to make it, no matter what it is. Yes, that happened.
The “very easy” part I agree with. The “super cute” part? Maybe not so much. As you can see from the instructional post, it’s not hard.
1. Find an empty bottle.
Or, if you are me, use it as an excuse to empty a bottle. By yourself. On a weeknight.
2. Get some yarn and glue.
3. Start to gluin’.
4. Glue, wrap, glue, wrap, glue, wrap, pretty much until you want to break the bottle and stab yourself with it. It takes forever.
When you are done, you have a bottle wrapped in yarn. I think I remember making something like this in elementary school art class– probably because it was cheap, required very little instruction, and it also kept us busy for a couple hours so the teacher could go have a nice long smoke break. So the finished product kind of looks like something I’m pretty sure I made in elementary school. Excellent. Maybe I should make some crepe paper flowers to stick in it and complete the look.
