DIY Faux Wax Dripped Bottle

Wax Dripped Bottle

I have always loved the look of a classic wax dripped Chianti wine bottle as a table decoration for a delicious Italian dinner. I had made one in the past but some of the wax broke off and it no longer looked very charming.  Rather than wait for candle wax to drip in a perfect pattern, I came up with the idea to make a faux version of the classic. With the help of a hot glue gun, twine, acrylic paint and a flameless candle, I created the perfect centerpiece to add the ambiance for any dinner party. No one will ever know that you faked it unless you tell them.
