Sometimes you get too involved, my first thought was to weave the bottle but that has been done before and would have taken a couple of hours. So I start to look at double stuffing and trying to get a bottle shape, three hours later it would have been quicker to weave something but I like the idea of the double stuffing although it still needs splenty of work to get the desired shape.

I started off with the bird body roll thru shape and double stuffed that, the top of the bottle would need to be double stuffed as well as the double layer of latex shrunk the top of the bottle too much and was not very succesful.

The next idea was to have more of a bottle shape to start with.

Then add different layers to shape the bottle more, some places had 3 or 4 layers to heighten the definition of the bottle but the shape is still wrong. I tried to cut out the top green layer to leave a square white label underneath showing to write champagne on but it just split open all the way around.
If the top and bottom of the bottle were in gold it would help, I think I'd like to play around some more with this idea so will see what we can do if we get a few minutes next week at kidology and David's lecture day.

Got up this morning and had another idea but when I started to double stuff..it went pop and this is what was left. Looks more like a bottle than my efforts last night.
