BottleArt Creations is a joint
effort of Caitlin Lacey and Moira Cameron. Discovering their
mutual hobby of collecting interesting and unusual bottles, they decided
to turn their combined collections into works of art.
Be sure to check their listings of wares as new items are added regularly.
Using wine or liquor bottles, jars, or other glass food or beverage containers and turning them into a medium for their art, Moira and Caitlin offer a wide selection enhanced bottles. The bottles can be used simply as decoration, but many have practical uses as well: candle holders, vases; or containers for dried foods, bath salts, potpourri, buttons, and so on.
With a variety of different paints, Caitlin decorates her
bottles with simple yet elegant designs and images. Especially
popular are her pieces with a Northern theme: Inukshuks, Northern
Lights, and a variety of flora and fauna. Caitlin also transforms
ordinary used light bulbs into delicately painted Christmas decorations.
Moira likes to use either macramé or crochet to enhance her bottles. The more oddly shaped the bottle, the more Moira enjoys the challenge of creating intricate patterns of string to highlight the bottle's colour and shape. Moira makes other crochet & macramé collectibles like shawls and afghans, Christmas decorations, jewellery, and her own unique creations: cup cozies and water bottle insulators.
