About a year ago, I was looking through my Nanna's collection of kitchen items that she was going to give away. She decided that she'd take the opportunity to get rid of some clutter while her kitchen was being remodeled!
I ran into these 3 bottles -- though I didn't have an immediate purpose for them -- I stated my famous last words... "Don't get rid of that! I could make something with it!"
The first thing I did was use them to display some of my favorite necklaces...
After we moved to a smaller place, the effort to dedicate so much square footage for 3 necklaces just wasn't working out...
So here's what they evolved into!
I bought some "rub ons" from the dollar bins at Michael's and made some modern art out of some vintage bottles!
Unfortunately, I'm stuck with a not-so-great camera, so you can't see the images too well.

| "vision" with reading glasses |

| "rest a minute" with a chair |
 |
| "take some time" with a pocket watch |
I've used these rub ons for several projects...
home-made cards
embellished frames & mattes
scrap-booking
ETC!
