I made some with a Christmas theme using Linda's measurements, what an amazing gift for Christmas.
When I visited the bottle shop to get some wine for these great little gifts I found the large and little bottles of wine which fit Linda's measurements, I made my Christmas gifts using these measurements.
I also spied a little bottle of Yellow Glen which was slightly larger than the little bottle of wine. I purchased this thinking that the sleeve would still fit, well it did not. So off to the work bench to work out the measurements etc. I nailed it on the second go (I scored the wrong side the first go).
To make the wine bottle sleeve to fit the mini Yellow Glen bottle you will need a piece of cardstock 7 1/8" x 7 3/4". Score on the 7 3/4" edge at 3/8", 1 5/8", 2 7/8", 4 1/8", 5 3/8" and 6 5/8". Score the 7 1/8" edge at 1 3/8" each end. The Designer Series Paper strips measure 1" x 4 1/8" and you will need a 1 3/4" circle for the base. Follow Linda's tutorial to make the actual sleeve.
I made the second set of wine bottle sleeves using a Smoky Slate, Silver and Whisper White colour theme. These would be great gift for a special occasion or a hostess gift for dinner or party.
Thank you for visiting.
