I can't believe school starts here in two weeks! It's going to be hard to get some crafting in during that time so forgive me if I don't post a lot and don't get a chance to visit. Once the kiddos are back in school, I'll have more time to whip up some fall pieces like these.
Yup, these are Starbucks coffee bottles. A lot of fun to envision but kind of a pain to paint. I had to break out the newspaper, painter's tape and paint brushes for these. Way too much work for me. I'm more of a spray-it-once-or-twice-and-it's-done kind of gal.
But I have been wanting to make something like this all summer. First I started by doing the coat of white paint. Then I moved onto the orange. Those two coats were done with spray paint. Since I didn't have yellow spray paint, I had to hand-paint the bottoms.
They are a little sloppy in some areas but overall, you get the idea. Plus the black tea-stained seam binding hides a gap and an oopsie or two.
I plan on using these as candle holders for October. Okay, probably September. Yes, I'm one of those people who starts their fall decorating right after Labor Day.
