Cerveza Centerpieces for Cinco de Mayo
First the "EASY"
"fácil"way...
"fácil"way...
Colorful water filled Coronita Bottles,
with beautiful "borrowed" flowers from my neighbor's front yard...
(can you believe that orange naranja color?
the "HARD"
"difícil"way...
"difícil"way...
(not really hard, just takes a little time and patience!)
Painted cerveza bottles...
Drip paint inside then turn and roll bottle around until all sides are covered.
Place bottles upside down for excess to run out.
It took a few coats, with a few hours drying time between,
but it was worth it, the colors really pop.
Either way,
you get to have a few cervezas for (and before :)
Cinco de Mayo
Ole!
(You can put water in the painted bottles and
they look great for the arrangement but the water takes the paint off
so they are for use UNO time)

It looks like either way you get to drink beer - sounds like my kind of project! :)

What a great way to create a recycled decoration! I love how you painted the inside of the bottle. It would be a lot of fun to try this with some other clear bottles for a similar painted look. Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI should make this for my friend who loves Corona!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a fun and original idea-love how the colors pop against the label!
ReplyDeleteI love these!!! They really are the perfect centerpiece. And they match my fiesta printable perfectly!
ReplyDeleteLove both ideas but I really love the painted bottles ... the vivid colors are so pretty!
