Hi and welcome to new followers, thanks for visiting my blog.
I hope you'll enjoy my little mini world and you will find some useful tips and tricks which I'm glady sharing here. Feel free to look around, there are more than 200 posts all together, so pour yourself a nice cup of coffee and take your time to look around.
The grand opening of my beach shop/bar/restaurant is coming closer so I had to make a few things in order to be ready for the big day.
Since the bar on the 1st floor will be mainly a champagne bar, this is of course what I will serve my guests to welcome them. And of course the brand you see here is my absolute favorite :-) ... mostly in real life, haha ππ
So I made some champagne buckets. These are made with a simple template (which you can find very easily on the Internet), printed out on matt photo paper. I prefer to use that kind of paper because it as a bit thicker than simple white paper and it's easier to handle when you stard fiddling with glue and scissors. Once the glue has dried, I painted them in gold + a little gold sparkle for the final touch and added a tiny VC label.
I am still in the process of learning on how to make my own bottles, so I bought these from one of my favorite ETSY SHOPS, thanks Carlotta (look for CINEN on etsy.com and you'll find her, she makes truly beautiful miniature items and the prices are reasonable)
I used little clear beads to simulate ice and a few of Carlotta's VC champagne bottles had to dive in there.
Stay tuned, there's more to come
See ya

Your champagne buckets are very well made and I like the concept of the clear beads to represent the ice cubes! Now I'm thirsty for a nice glass of cool champagne!
