Something different!

 Hi Everyone, I had, as a present, Laura Ashley hand soap and lotion for the bathroom, maybe a year or 2 back, I have been refilling them and now have run out of spare to fill them. I decided as the labels were getting a little faded, they needed to be renewed, but I love how they have their own ceramic container and to find product the same size would be impossible, I thought. SO - 

I copied Marie Kondo's idea KonMari Method to make things simpler and I went into my Cameo, wrote a couple of labels, added a leaf shape, cut them out of gold vinyl and after making sure all the label and glue was removed from the plastic with WD40 and lighter fuel believe it or not! I added them to the bottles.  I think they will last a while longer like this and they look good too. I'm biased LOL. They can now be filled with the most expensive hand soap and lotion I can buy, ahem!

I'm not going to tell you what I did it wrong, I'll leave that to you, to see if you can see it, blame it on excitement to get it done! They are straight! the bottles weren't! I don't think the error matters and I only realised when placing them in the bathroom! So I'm hoping no one else does either, while singing Happy Birthday, twice, washing their hands!



Wash your hands and keep safe

This is beautiful, Faith. I love to recycle my beautiful bottles, unfortunately they make them so you cannot open them to refill.
Or you can not by that fragrance again, there is always something new. Hope you can use these long time.
Mistake? I cannot see it ( or you must have put the liquid in the wrong bottles - grin- )

What a fun idea to create new labels for your bottles, Faith! Not sure what the mistake might be, though!

They look so nice and great that you saved them. I wonder if it is that the Lotion should have a dot over the "i" - but really wouldn't have noticed.
