Materials
Old blue jeans
1" white lace ribbon
1" burlap lace ribbon
Fake pearl beads
Wooden beads
Sewing thread
Tools
Scissors
Sewing needle
Hot glue gun
Hot glue sticks
Instructions
Measure and cut the leg of an old pair of blue jeans off, to just the same height as a bottle of wine.
Turn the denim inside out, then, hem one of the open ends closed.
On the open end of the denim cover, sew the lace ribbon around the open end, so the flat end is just below the edge, and the scalloped edge is hanging out the top.
Flip the denim back right side out, and fold the lace over the top edge.
Now, measure and tie the burlap ribbon around the center of the cover, cinching it in slightly. You want it to curve in, but not be too tight to move the bottle of wine in and out easily.
Glue this length of burlap ribbon around the middle of the cover, crossing the loose ends in the front as a bow.
Now, use some of the lace ribbons, cut a piece then sew/cinch it together in the center to create a round piece for a "bow".
Glue this to the middle of the center burlap ribbon you just made.
Then, glue a wooden bead to the center of the lace ribbon round bow.
Glue pearl beads around the top edge, and around the bottle, in swirls or groupings as desired. Add other embellishments if desired.
Notes
This is made easier by using a sewing machine, but it is not necessary to make the project.
