I am a great fan of KayEllen and her blog. Recently she posted a project that I loved, dressing up old bottles with lace and antique flatware using a seelah tape ,a great adhesive no sew tape that is made by a company her parents own.
I couldn't wait to make a few of them but of course I had to add more bling.
So...I decorated the bottles and added candle holders.
Maybe I went a little overboard...one candle probably would have done the job and in the meantime save my sanity.
I couldn't get all the candles straight at the same time to save my life.
I think maybe the candles were drinking the wine while I wasn't looking.
A quick update at the farm
Daisy May is doing very well and is out playing with the other fillies during the day
AND
we had our last 2 foals this past week, both fillies.
Foaling is done for the season and I am most thankful all went well.
Doc our new addition is still the novelty of the farm.
My husband rode him this past weekend for the first time.
He is a like riding a gentle giant.
Our daughter visited us over the Memorial Day weekend.
She isn't a "horse girl" or at least never was never very interested in them.
Sometimes I think they were too available plus she knew the work involved...
the dream of a pony wasn't part of her childhood
To my amazement she wanted to ride everyday while she was home.
She connected with a little mare named Countess Wilson
It was so fun to have her out riding with us
I will post pictures of the new fillies when it stops raining.
As Always

creating with wine bottles, love it. Looking forward to visiting the sites that inspired you.
I remember seeing Doc when you first got him...but makes you hubby look small. Doc is surely a gaint. Did he have to climb the fence to get in the saddle?
Look forward to seeing the newest additions.

Clever bottle decor ... love those little fillies ... TTFN ~ Marydon
What a great idea for homemade candles. I don't think you went overboard, I think they look wonderful. That Doc is sure a handsome fella! I'm glad to hear everything went well with all of the new babies and that everyone is healthy.
Congrats on the new fillies! I am so glad to hear that Daisy Mae is doing well:)
As for your candle holders they are fabulous!!! I might have to try that too:)
Blessings,
