I peeled the label off, and then used a combination of furniture polish, fabric softener and sneaker cleaner to get the residue off (I seriously need to buy some goof off!). Once I got the goop off it, I used some left over vinyl from another project and added a fun little caption with my Lyrical Letters cartridge. Of course I needed to embellish with a little ribbon...and here she is:
I wanted to add some cute/fun graphics so I pulled out my Indie Art cartridge. Seeing as my son is OBSESSED with batman currently, I thought the bomb/pow captured the feel I was going for. Here's a close up:
So for a couple bucks I've got a personalized gift that is as functional as it is cute! What gifts have you made for back to school?

Awesome teacher gift! My grandson's school has different themes for the rooms in each grade, like Mrs, West is "Wild West" and his teacher this year is using frogs, so I would love to make a "themed" bottle for his teachers at Christmas! Thanks for the awesome inspiration!
