Makeover Monday - Soda Bottle Mailers

Hope your week is off to a great start! For this week's Makeover Monday, I decide to use a 2 liter soda bottle to mail a RAK to someone.

First, I would advise that you get some help drinking up your beverage, 2 liters is a LOT! Next, rinse the bottle out and make sure it's dry on the inside, too.

Remove the label. Take a craft knife and make a slice, about 5" or so long, your bottle design is a good guide.

Stick your hand into the slice and start filling your bottle up. I like to use colorful shreds to add color and help cushion the stuff I put inside.

You can get quite  few things in there!

Here's some roses! Add more shreds to keep them from getting squished.

I spy Hello Kitty!

When you're done stuffing, use some clear packing tape to seal the slice.

Screw the bottle cap on tightly and tape it up so it won't come off.

Cover the bottle cap with some foil to dress it up and tape this up, too.

Wrap some pretty paper around the bottle. Make a label and place over the area where the slice is. Tape it up securely. Hmmm..who should I send this to?

Take to the Post Office to add on the postage and mail your bottle off!

Sorry, this post is late, I didn't get to the post office until today, and I wanted to make sure they still accept these. Thanks for stopping by today and don't forget you have until Wednesday 12 noon HST to leave a carnival memory comment on last week's Aloha Friday post. Have a great night!
