1. Meteor shower

In life, you want more bright and fabulous moments, which is why such a truly festive option can be the choice of the majority.

To create such a miracle, it is enough to treat the bottle with glue and sprinkle with sparkles with a brush or sprinkle generously directly from the jar. It can be plain glitter or a combination of several colors. And lovers of painstaking work can approach the embodiment of the idea even more creatively - for example, decorate a bottle with shiny patterns. To do this, the glue must be applied with a thin brush only in those places where the ornament will be located. In other words, draw a pattern with glue, and then sprinkle it with sparkles, wait until the glue is completely dry and remove the remaining powder with a wide brush or simply shake it off.

2. Christmas characters and Christmas tree

Preparing for the New Year is as magical as celebrating it. And, of course, you can’t do without champagne on such a holiday! Therefore, the main attribute of the New Year holidays and winter characters can be not only dressed up in costumes, but also decorate the table.

To implement the Christmas tree idea, you will need green organza (you can replace it with colored cellophane, crepe paper or floral felt). Cut strips of small width and make vertical cuts on them. Carefully attach the resulting blanks to the bottle and complete the Christmas tree with beads, small toys or even sweets. Fantasize with color, decorations and width of ribbons - let your Christmas tree be the most unusual!

You can make outfits for the Snow Maiden, Santa Claus, Snowman from felt and other dense fabrics, as well as using holofiber, knitting threads, buttons and other materials. The options with big eyes look pretty funny. Buttons or ready-made eyes are suitable, which can be purchased at needlework stores. If you wish, you can sew or knit bottle covers in the form of heroes of a winter fairy tale - such decor will be reusable, unlike glued jewelry.

3. Heroes of fairy tales and cartoons

A children's holiday will become brighter if you adopt the idea of ​​decorating bottles in the style of fairy-tale or cartoon characters. Such packaging is suitable not only for children's champagne, but also as an addition to the atmosphere of a corporate party with a specific theme.

For such decoration, a variety of materials are suitable: for example, to decorate a bottle for a corporate party in the style of a minion or another cartoon character, it is better to take bright felt, but you can draw a princess from your daughter's favorite fairy tale using colors(of course, if you have the talent of an artist) or create from napkins for decoupage.

4. Candy Pineapple

First, cut out leaves from crepe paper. To prevent the paper from tearing during operation, fold it in several layers. We glue the resulting leaves to the neck of champagne and proceed to the base of the pineapple. For realism, it is best to use sweets in yellow or brown packaging. We attach them around the bottle, while not forgetting to bend the tails of the wrappers, if any (it is most convenient to use sweets in the form of a hemisphere).

5. Dot painting

It looks festive, bright, interesting - in a word, magical! An idea for those who like to spend time creating a gift with their own hands.

To create a bitmap, you will need a primer (for surface preparation), acrylic art paints and special dotting tools - dots with tips of different sizes (can be replaced with miniature brushes). This technique is suitable for decorating any bottle, be it champagne, wine or cognac. Wedding, New Year, Birthday in a marine style, corporate party in a certain color - let your imagination run wild and realize your most unexpected ideas by decorating a gift bottle with dot painting!

A satin ribbon is an excellent material for creativity: you can not just wrap a bottle around it, you can make beautiful flowers, bows and other small and larger elements from it.

A combination of bright colors allows you to create a decoration for a bottle as a gift for any occasion.

7. Colored threads

This colorful idea is popular with interior designers, but if desired, it can be adopted by those who decide to present a bottle of alcohol as a gift.

To implement the idea, you only need good glue, threads of the desired shades and patience. You can complement the composition with buttons or even pebbles.

8. Pouch with a surprise

Modern counters are full of various attributes that save our time and energy. And you probably noticed more than once special bags for alcohol. For those who do not like to mess with manual work, such a ready-made option is suitable.

To implement the idea, you need to stock up on stickers, candy wrappers, napkins, printed pictures with your favorite characters, or paints - if you know how to draw. A primer will help prepare the surface.

10. Lace

Lace is always associated with emotional events, with the tenderness and airiness inherent in girls who know how to enjoy life. A bottle wrapped in such an outfit is tender. Lace decor is a great option for presenting a sparkling lady.

And everything is done very simply. The lace you like must be glued very carefully - just as gently as the groom puts the bride's wedding ring on the ring finger. Another option is to make a case out of lace.

11. Fresh flowers

Looks good and smells good too. The idea is suitable as a present not only for women, but also for men, provided that the flowers are chosen correctly.

The decor is perishable, so it is best to embody the idea on the day of the holiday. And it is convenient to fix the flowers with jute or linen thread.

12. Modeling

An excellent option for the most creative people. With the help of salt dough, gypsum or ceramic mass (clay), you can create the most incredible things! Use gold or silver paint to complete the work - and your present will take on a royal look.

What else can be glued on the bottle: coffee beans, twisted flagella, pieces of leather, shells, pebbles and everything that your imagination tells you. Ideal for presenting a bottle of alcohol to the representative of the stronger sex.

The first thing that comes to mind is to pack a bottle of wine in gift paper, since now there is a very wide selection of patterns, textures and density of wrapping paper. You can make a very beautiful, elegant and stylish wine wrapper out of paper, which will even be a pity to tear.


Paper bottle packaging with serpentine fringe.

The standard version of packaging a bottle in paper can be diversified with long curls on the neck of the bottle. Such a wrapper will harmoniously look for a gift for the New Year holidays, as the twisted fringe resembles a serpentine.


Lay the bottle on wrapping paper, cut a strip to fit the width. Cut a long fringe at the end of the paper. In principle, this step can be skipped by making the top in the form of an envelope or package. Wrap the bottle with paper, secure the side with small pieces of tape.

The side can be glued with tape or wrapped with decorative tape, ribbon or cord. Try to make the junction of the two layers of paper almost invisible. The bottle can be decorated with New Year's toys, natural or artificial flowers.

A rare man will not be delighted with a gift in the form of a bottle of elite alcohol. By the way, according to generally accepted etiquette, alcohol can only be given to men. Women can't. But when it comes to close people, etiquette can be ignored. If a friend appreciates good wines, why not give her such a gift?

If alcohol is sold in a box, it is packaged as standard. And how to pack a bottle without a box? After all, you want the present to look original and festive. Let's look at some interesting solutions.

Wrap in paper

The packaging for the bottle is lush

You will need a square or round sheet of paper, as well as ribbons and possibly tape. The paper size is like this:

  • if a square, then its side is equal to the height of the bottle multiplied by 2
  • if a circle, then its diameter is equal to the height of the bottle, multiplied by 2

We lay out the sheet on the table, put the bottle in the center, lift the edges of the paper up, collect and fix it with a ribbon. For reliability, you can use tape.

How beautiful to pack a bottle as a gift?

To make the packaging look even more magnificent, you need to take not one, but two or three types of paper at once, putting them one on top of the other: for example, one is a bright accent, the other is translucent, the third is transparent. You can "play" with the edges of the paper, making them curly.

If desired, additional decor can be applied: for example, small Christmas balls, sweets, flowers, beads, etc.

Instead of paper for lush packaging, elegant fabric is also suitable.

Bottle packaging concise

We will need:

  • thick wrapping paper
  • double sided tape
  • scissors
  • neat bow

1. Put the wrapping paper inside out.

2. We put the bottle on top and wrap it in paper, making two turns.

3. We cut off the excess.

4. On one of the long sides we make a bend of 1-2 cm (“face” is bent towards the wrong side).

5. Glue double-sided tape to this edge.

6. We wrap the bottle, starting from the edge opposite the adhesive edge. We leave a few free centimeters of paper from the bottom of the bottle - this will be the bottom of the package.

7. Having reached the adhesive edge, gently press it, fixing the resulting tube.

8-9. We decorate the bottom of the package: carefully fill the paper and glue it with double-sided tape.

10-11. We put the bottle upright. The free upper edge of the package is compressed. We leave 6-8 cm of paper above the neck of the bottle, cut off the rest.

12. We wrap the upper edge twice in a centimeter and fix it with double-sided tape. Glue a small bow to the front of the package.

Japanese style paper packaging

1. We take two types of paper: red and white. The paper should be soft but hold the fold line well. The size of the sheets - depending on the bottle (length and width are about two times the height of the bottle). The papers are stacked on top of each other.

2. We make folds on the paper in one direction, pressing and smoothing the folds. The size of one fold is approximately 2-2.5 cm. Fold until you get a narrow strip. The edge, if it differs from the rest of the folds, is cut off. Unfold and separate sheets. Before us is paper with clear parallel fold lines.

3. We pleat the sheets. We take the lowest fold line and wrap it over ourselves by about half a centimeter. Press and smooth the crease. We do this with each fold line, moving higher and higher.

4. We fix the pleated with adhesive tape, gluing it from the wrong side of the sheet. We do this with both sheets.

5. We connect the sheets with double-sided tape, making sure that the folds on them are directed in one direction.

6. Turn the sheet inside out. We put the bottle diagonally in the lower corner and wrap it up. We fix the end with double-sided tape.

7. We make out the bottom of the package. Cut off the excess and wrap the paper, securing with tape.

8. We take cardboard or a thick postcard and cut a circle to fit the bottom of the bottle. Glue the circle to the bottom of the package for stability.

9. We decorate the packed bottle with ribbon and / or other decorative elements.

How to pack a bottle as a gift? In Japanese!

Japanese-style bottle packaging: option two

This is an extremely simple method with a very aesthetic result.

We need paper that holds the fold line well. The sheet must be square. The length of the side is about twice the height of the bottle.

1. Fold the sheet in half diagonally. We get a triangle. If the paper is double-sided, you can fold it not quite in half - so that the edges of the two sides of the triangle differ in color.

2. Bend the triangle in half and smooth to outline the center line.

3. Starting from one of the bottom corners, fold the paper like a fan until we reach the center fold line. Each fold is 1-1.5 cm.

4. Put the bottle in the corner of the smooth half. Glue the corner to the bottle with double-sided tape. We wrap the bottle up to the center line and again fix the structure with adhesive tape.

5. We do not wrap the corrugated side around the bottle, but press it in one place and fix it with a tie (tape, braid, etc.).

Paper packaging with pompom or curls

The bottle is wrapped in the same way as described above in the instructions “Concise packaging” (up to point 9). However, the upper free edge is not cut off, but cut into strips. Each strip must be stretched between the finger and the scissors. As a result, the top of the package will “curl”.

Packed in fabric

Furoshiki

This is a Japanese packaging technique. You can use elegant fabric, and if the gift is intended for a woman, a beautiful scarf is also suitable (this is both a package and an additional present). Everything is done easily according to the scheme.

With pompom

Everything is the same here as with paper. We wrap in 2-3 turns, fasten the structure with adhesive tape or seams. We tie a ribbon on top, and cut the free edge into strips, turning it into a cute pompom.

Make a small cut (4-5 cm) near the black pipe from the top edge. Bend the edges so that the white "shirt" peeks out. Attach buttons on a white strip (you can draw), a bow tie.
