Almost Done !!!! - Light House Bottle !!!

18 years ago

All I need to do tonight is grout . Black grout - yuck.

Here's more info about it .....

* I paid $3.75 for it !

* I kept it as a bottle that can OPEN ! I glued the original cork onto the bobache so it can be Uncorked !

Cool !

* I put river rocks all around the bottom .

* On the top part - this is the happy accident .... I made the round part with mirrors. The mirrors reflect the curves of the bobache and it actually looks like there are light bulbs inside the windows ! I swear - this is just too cool ! LOLLL

* The final thing is the topper. The glass goes up to such a small point - I couldn't figure out what to do. SO ---- *lightbulb moment*

--I'm going to put a cluster of rhinestones .

Whew - My brain hasn't had such a work out for ages ....

I'm in heaven !

Anyway - here's the last pic of it - ungrouted ...

Aaaaaaaaaraghh. I'm so frustrated -- I can't see the picture!! All I see is a little red square; when I click on it, I'm taken to the Photobucket main page.

:(

I wanna play, too!
