  2. Using scissors, carefully cut the top part off the bottle at around the halfway point.
  3. Create small holes along the circumference of the bottle’s edge.
  4. Decorate the outside of the bottle with permanent markers or paint.
  5. For a whimsical touch, add glitter or beads inside the bottle if desired.
  6. Attach the cardboard base to the bottom of the bottle securely with tape or glue.
