Kerry Jay on facebook (don't know if she is a forum member or not) had taken the latex wrapped bottle idea I posted a while ago and pimped it up with a Rudolph face. I liked it and had a go. I then had a go at an elf. There are obviously lots of possibilities here and perhaps another revenue stream for some of you to offer customers. (I am just using them as gifts for teachers and colleagues - for now)
Have fun

Looks like a fun idea  

These look fun x

I might actually do a youtube video for wrapping the bottle. The add on bits are purely down to imagination (and perhaps a bit of rubber cement and sharpie action)

how did you do this I tried with a 646 balloon and inflated then pushed the bottle in as it deflated but couldn't get the last bit covered :?

I end up with the cap not covered. I then take the end of a 646 of the same colour (or 350 if you have strong fingers) to cover the cap and complete the wrapped look.

These look fantastic! What a great idea.

Continuing the theme. These bottles of fizz were a little harder to wrap than normal bottles of wine but they turned out great.

Hi Stuart
Yes I am on here and it was your idea that inspired me in the first place!
Here is my reindeer! I'm going to have a play with your designs now!

Hi Kerry, thanks for inspiring me to do more with these. I now have some great gifts for teachers and helpers at school. With the right colours, all sorts is possible. I did cheat a bit with the hats by the way and glued them to the top.
In the right colours and with a tweak to the nose, I reckon there is a donkey or rabbit in the elf waiting to get out

I have posted a youtube tutorial for this. There is a link in the tutorial section of this forum.

I did not get too much time yesterday, this was version three. I did not have time to make version one and two yet.

I do something quite similar but could only find one picture. but also looks good as a crocodile as well as all the normal heads you can use.

Great idea, thank you! I'll surely have a go
