upcycled functional art...decantor gifts
I want to take objects that would otherwise be thrown away or recycled and turn them into something else. I prefer a functionality to my art so each of my altered bottles is reusable as a decantor. Display the bottle on a bar or shelf....take a swig when in need! Let your imagination go wild cuz each bottle is a cleat slat a new canvas....I hope you take my ideas and fly with it! Have fun and happy crafting!
