A BEAUTIFUL WAY TO WRAP A BOTTLE

Good Morning from South Australia - one day closer to Christmas.

For those of you who give bottles of wine etc. as Christmas gifts here is a lovely way to wrap them - a bit different from the commercially bought bottle bag.

The Rose Wrap a bottle with a couple of layers of pink tissue paper.  Fold the bottom part in and tape. Tie a piece of thick thread around the bottle neck.  Wrinkle the excess paper and squish it together.  At the end fold one sheet of paper into  thirds and tie it around the paper petal.  Attach with thread. Tie a green ribbon around the neck. I think this is very sweet and comes from Christmas Magazine.. Love and hugs, Christmas is a time when you get homesick - even when you're home.          Carol Nelson
