I've got some long,pretty bottles from Ascotts to go for pressies this year - to be filled with raspberry, strawberry or rhubarb schnapps. Does anyone have any ideas for presenting them as pairs? Wrapping bottles looks amatuerish however careful I am.
It needs to be super-quick, cheap and easy, I only have to next Saturday to sort them out and package them up (otherwise I'll have to post them) |

How about like a giant cracker? Will they fit into sections of poster tube, then you wrap paper round and gather the ends rather than folding and taping |

like the cracker idea
or you could use material tubes tied at th top with nice ribbon or cord. the material will fold and scrunch neater than paper |

They are smallholding suppliers. We use them for some stuff But do check around as they can some times be very over priced.

Coo, Marigold: really like that furoshiki stuff.

I received a lovely botttle of Calvados last year which was wrapped in fuschia pink voile type fabric, tied at the top with a gold ribbon - looked fantastic  |
