How to Wrap a Wine Bottle for Thanksgiving (Step by Step Instructions)
People are always intimidated when they want to wrap a wine bottle and tend to opt for the paper or cellophane wine bag. It is actually easy and fun to wrap a wine bottle because of its interesting shape. You can use pieces of things you already have to add character and style to your wine bottle.
With the holidays quickly approaching, a bottle of wine makes a great hostess gift for the Thanksgiving holiday especially when it is decoratively wrapped. The mixture of fabric, beads and nature elements enhance the bottle design and would look beautiful on any dinner or buffet table. I used pieces of things I already had to create this design.
Here are two bottle gift wrapping ideas that are easy to make with tissue paper, fabric and ribbon.
Decorated Wine Sleeve
This type of wine wrap makes a great accent for a holiday table. The wine can be opened and poured while still wearing its decorative sleeve or it can be slid off and saved.

- Warm earth toned scrapbooking paper
- Oatmeal colored burlap
- Burgundy bamboo twine
- Fabric leaves (1 large and 4 small)
- Amber bead strips cut from a holiday pick
