Pics of my first DIY (need some help!)

My first DIY turned out ok but I think they need a little something else. Any ideas???

are you putting anything in them? Like are you already planing on putting flowers in them?

Or you can go to Michaels and get some pretty appliques to put on the labels?

I was thinking about putting battery operated christmas lights in them?? But I am not sure if they will fit down the neck of the bottle.

The scrapbooking section in michaels has some pretty appliques you could add to the labels or even the bottle itself!

Instead of putting christmas lights inside them, why not do like the girls said and put christmas appliques on them. They sell strands of christmas lights for scrapbooking. You can add them onto the labels. You can even make each one different. I went with a winter wonderland/snowflake theme and found just about everything at michaels. Dont forget your coupons though. those stickers can get pricey

Yes!

I'd be concerned with how much of the lights you'd see anyway... how would you light them up in the bottles? And that glass is pretty dark and thick, ... I think it'd be a wasted effort.
