I think bottles are a fun and unexpected way to display photographs! For my creation I used an empty olive oil bottle and wrapped jute twine around the top and bottom. It conveniently covered up the logos on the bottle and I love how it frames out the photo.
I used the Black and White filter in PicMonkey to desaturate my photo and printed it on a piece of vellum.
I found the Old Gummed Parcel Post Label at the Graphics Fairy and printed it on cardstock. On it I wrote the date and location of the photograph and distressed it a bit with coffee grounds.
All of the materials that I used I had on hand. So for next to nothing I have a lovely new addition to my beachy mantel! For more inspiration, check out the gorgeous photo bottles made by Barb at Turtles and Tails.
I adore this! That photo is marvelous and the way you display it is simply stunning. Love!
