I love cute, clever and easy and that was the route I went this year. I have to admit that I didn't invent this idea, but I, like always, modified it. I saw one of these made from an EMPTY wine bottle as a decoration in the office of my favorite closing attorney last week. But hey, who would ever give an empty wine bottle to anyone. That's just rude.
So you will need a few things,
- Bottle of wine
- Gauze
- Wiggly eyes
- Tape
Then start at the top add a little bit of tape to hold the gauze in place. Then wrap up the "mummy" and either tape or tuck into place. You could also use glue to hold in place if you want. Then after they drink the wine they can keep the mummy for year after year to decorate for Halloween. It is even really cool to put some LED white Christmas lights into the bottle and you could cover the cord with gauze as well.

Tammy,
Very cute, and very much in the spirit of Halloween. Thanks for sharing it with us. A
I love the wine bottle Tammy Lankford ....great gift idea! I need to think of a few myself
Have a great night!
Very very cute! It's the perfect way to jazz up a Hostess gift for Halloween.
Aloha Tammy, you have the yummy mummy magic theme down to a T...Bone that is! Nice selection of Vino for the occasion, their suavignon blanc is defiinately something to leap for! Mahalo for submission to the Haunted Post Parade!
I'll give you an "A" for creativity!
And you know I'd not be happy with an empty wine bottle!
Would be adorable to give as a "feel better" gift to someone!
Tammy that is adorable! I need to make a few of those the next day or so - love it!
That's adorable! I need 17 please! In the morning "mommy juice" is coffee and in the evening it's the vino! :)
Cute, Tammy! I think even I could do that! LOL
Very cute.....great idea.
I had no idea you could buy wiggily eyes. I'd like to stick them all over my car.
Ron and Alexandra Seigel - Alex, I saw an empty one and was charmed and decided to put my own spin on it.
Rob Thomas I have a couple of closings this week so I'm going to get them both one, maybe wine and maybe a little something else in a bottle.
Pat Starnes I love it for sure
Kimo Stowell not sure if I can get any of the pets to go for the theme or not.
Thom Abbott I like A's
Sharon Altier, SFR It could have band-aids too for someone who'd been in some sort of accident. Lots of variations
Anna Banana Kruchten glad it was the Tuesday post and people still have time to use the idea.
Kerrie La Guardia mommy juice is very important. Hope you are enjoying this very very special time. It's time for some cute 1st Halloween pictures you know.
Carol Williams it was so easy
Roger D. Mucci and it would work for a bottle of scotch too.
Elizabeth Weintraub Sacramento Real Estate Agent, Top 1% of Lyon Agents I think you need these Giant Wiggly Eyes for your car.
I love this. You are so darn clever. I used to make hot dogs wrapped like this with strips of croissant dough and then mustard eyes.
I thikn that is so cute. I wish I was having a party and could use it.
Very cute indeed - what a fun Halloween gift to make!
Karen Fiddler, Broker/Owner you know you could do this with a water bottle for kids to go with that hotdog. LOL
Debbie Reynolds maybe a favorite past client who sent you a referral needs a pop by?
Lisa Von Domek I'm such a Halloween fan, but I'm already re-thinking the idea to work for Santa at Christmas too. I can wrap up a santa or maybe a raindeer.
Good morning Tammy. I like your idea much better than the one the closing attorney had. Your idea is pretty cute actually.
I love the idea. Thank you for sharing. I will share this with others.
Joe Petrowsky yeah, don't give me an empty wine bottle LOL
Gita Bantwal glad to know you'll share it.
Have an outstanding week and much Halloween fun.
Great idea! After you remove the gauze you can leave the eyes to keep a watch on you as you drink. LOL
That is very cute! Great idea, I like it. -Kasey
Hi Tammy. I like your idea. I will have to remember it.
