Winter Candy Jar Gnome Bottles
"Gnomes are all the rage, and they are super easy to make with a jar, some felt, and glue!! This is a great project to upcycle those bottles you have left from dressing or BBQ sauce!! Etch the outside of the jars to make them "frosty" or just leave them plain, and then add your favorite candies or treats as a cute gift to a friend. You can even make these gnomes with full bottles to give as a gift, such a as a bottle of wine!"
