Free Schitt’s Creek Wine Labels For A Very Merry Schittsmas

Schitts Creek wine labels-free printable

Ok, this is our last Schitt’s Creek post of the year. And, it has to do with wine, so it might even be better than our Schitt’s Creek gift tags.  All you need is any bottle of wine, and our FREE Schitt’s Creek labels for an evening of fun and laughter. You can remove the old labels on your favorite bottles of wine, or add these labels right on top. We love to use Astrobrights white sticker paper for these labels!

If your looking for a last-minute gift for friends and neighbors, this is an easy and fun idea! You can even top it with a DIY beanie wine topper, black and white in honor of David and Moira, of course. Thanks to Jenna at Fleur de Lis to creating them.

We hope you find time to laugh this Christmas, find joy in the little things, clink your wine glass with a good girlfriend or two this season, and watch a funny show like Schitt’s Creek before bed.

Merry Christmas!

Perfect Boozy Holiday & New Year’s Gift to Give Friends in 2020 + Free Printable

DIY toilet paper and prosecco holiday gift and free printable

2020 was a crappy year. There were amazing silver linings, but there’s not a lot of sugar coating this year. So, we’re going with the “crappy” theme for our small gifts we give to neighbors and friends this year. We are going to give them the hot ticket items that everyone wanted this year; the ridiculous things 2020 will be remembered for (the ones we can always laugh about, not the important, life-altering things)…booze and toilet paper. Yes, we all drank a little too much, and OVER BOUGHT (or couldn’t buy because it was sold out everywhere) toilet paper. We still cannot believe the toilet paper trials and tribulations that occurred this year. Who knew?!

This gift is super duper easy, and a very affordable gift anyone can do…and pull together last minute. All you procrastinators, we see you and we feel you. This is your gift to give this year! Give it at Christmas, or give it during that week between Christmas and New Year’s. Big farewell to 2020 with this awesome toilet paper and Prosecco gift!

2020 Essentials Gift Idea: Toilet Paper and Prosecco + Free Printable

DIY toilet paper and prosecco holiday gift and free printable

All you need is the 12-pack of Zonin Italian Prosecco from Costco, our cute FREE LABELS, Astrobrights Sticker Paper, and toilet paper (we bought the giant case from Costco). That’s it! It’s a fun gift to give and a funny gift to receive. You never know, that toilet paper may come in handy in 2021.

Merry Christmas. Cheers, everyone!

Your friends and family who are fans of the show will appreciate the special holiday touch, including David’s lightning bolt sweater paired with You’re Simply the Best, and their always funny coined phrases including Ewe, which Alexis says best.

Holiday DIY: How To Dress Up Boxed Wine for The Holidays

DIY Boxed Wine Gingerbread Boxes

Last time, we got cozy and cute with DIY beanie wine bottle toppers. Today, we’re dressing up boxed wine. In fact, we made a DIY boxed wine gingerbread village we lovingly call Vinoville. Let’s get one thing clear, there’s nothing wrong with boxed wine. If your a wino, it may not be your thing, and that’s cool. We love a smooth bottle of Brunello di Montalcino as must as anyone, and if we had the budget, we would splurge all the time.

But, we love to sip wine, whether it’s in a bottle or box. Wine, even when it’s presented from a box, tastes good, and helps us get our chill on. Plus, we’re getting more bang for our buck, and gotta love that! As a college student or 20-something who is hanging with girlfriends – a boxed wine on the table or bar is ALL good. As grown women who like to host (sometimes), a box of wine is not the prettiest addition to the bar. Again, absolutely nothing wrong with it, but dressing it up just a bit can make all the difference for a more ‘grown-up’ look, especially during the holidays. You can do it for very little money, and get creative with it! You can use the wrapping paper you have on-hand, so you don’t even have to go to the store. We love to wrap with Kraft paper, so we had some on hand, and used it to create Gingerbread Houses. But, imagine how cute this would be with plaid paper, or pretty metallic paper with a big bow!

DIY Boxed Wine Makeover: Gingerbread Houses 

Materials:

Directions:

Step 1: Remove the cardboard circle, where the spout comes out. Next, trace that circle  on the wrapping paper. Make sure you do it in the middle, like your wrapping a gift, so you have enough paper on all sides (basically don’t trace it on the edge of the wrapping paper). Cut the circle out with scissors or an X-acto knife. You can make it slightly larger so it doesn’t rip when you pull the spout through, or if you rip it like we did on one of them, you can add a black paper door (or even a mini wreath) around it and no one will ever know.

Step 2: Wrap the wine boxes. We didn’t get a good photo of that, but put the wine box upside down (you can take the bag out if it’s too heavy and crinkles the paper), and line up the cut out circle with the spout. You can pull the spout through it at this point if you didn’t already in step one. Wrap it like a gift, so do the back first, then “cut-in” on the sides for the bottom just like you would for a gift. See step 3 for the roof.

Step 3: Cut in the sides just like you did for the bottom, but just tape one of the sides, not the final “corner” – that peak is the roof. Kraft paper stays nice and straight. If you use flimsy wrapping paper, you can either find something to prop it up, have a flat roof or keep open up and glue two of the sides of the wine box together before wrapping it, so it creates a peak (we did that for the white-roof one before we created a ruffle roof with a crepe paper roll).

Step 4: Now, it’s time to make gingerbread house lines, swirls, doors, snowflakes, etc. Make each house your own. We used a marker pen for the white decorations, and added ribbon, pins and mini Santa hats, and a bell to accessorize. They can be as simple or as complex as you want. How fun would it be to make the Grinch house, Whoville, or even ugly Christmas sweaters?! If you want the labels, we can email them to you for free. Email us at hello@jsorelle.com or IM us on IG here and tell us you want the boxed gingerbread house wine printables. We have one for Merlot, Pinot and Chardonnay!

Step 5: Let the wine flow. Cheers!

A DIY Beanie Wine Bottle Topper For Every Bottle of Wine In Your Life This Winter

DIY beanie wine bottle toppers-holiday-gift-wine-lovers-winter-cozy

This holiday season brings about so many emotions. Gratitude for all the silver livings this year has bestowed upon us. A good perspective on our lives and what really matters as we near the end of this disastrous year. Worry that the year is not yet over and well, anything can still happen. Angst about school, jobs and our health. Embarrassed by the fact that we cannot give the extravagant gifts we want due to the economic turmoil this pandemic has caused. Fear that we may get sick. Concern that people are more alone that ever this holiday season. Pleasure in the cozy loungewear we get to wear more often. The list goes on and on. But, through it all we must remain steadfast in hope, joy and love. Whether its from others, or tiny moments throughout the day, it’s there…it’s just harder to find this year.

One thing is for certain this holiday season – we will be sipping wine as we toast the good memories, bid farewell to the bad, and laugh about all the ridiculous ones in between. If we can’t dress up and go to all the parties we usually do, we can at least dress up our wine bottles! We made DIY wine topper beanies, and our wine bottles have never looked so cozy and cute!

These are so insanely easy to make, and you have more time than ever at home, so get to it. There is no sewing, crocheting or knitting skills necessary. Make them for your own wine bottles at home, or gift them to friends with a bottle of wine this holiday season. You can give an expensive bottle, or a cheap $7 Malbec from Kirkland/Costco (don’t knock it till you try it – I have some in my wine bar now). Cover up the label with the cute labels we made (FREE printable here), and no one will ever know if it’s a $100 bottle, $30 bottle, or $10 bottle of wine. You’re welcome!

Let’s get this wine and beanie party started…

DIY Beanie Wine Toppers

Materials:

  • Wine
  • Yarn (we found the thick yarn works best, and is less work)
  • Toilet paper squares (for the stuffing)
  • Poster board or thick card stock (cut in strips)
  • Scissors
  • X-acto knife
  • White flat back pearls for embellishment*
  • Astrobrights Sticker Paper (for labels)*

Directions: 

Step 1: Cut poster about 1-2 inches thick and approximately 8.5-9.5 inches long. You can wrap it around the neck of your wine bottle to see how you want it to sit and the right length for you. Important note: the short the neck of your wine bottle, the better. It looks better, and it fits better. If the neck is too long, it looks odd, and you can’t pull it down. Use a hot glue gun to glue the poster board together so it makes a circle.

NOTE: in the photos below, I used toilet paper rolls and different colored yarn for another similar craft you should check out – DIY beanie ornaments. For the wine toppers, you will need something larger than toilet paper rolls, such as the poster board. The method of making them is the same, so don’t pay attention to the colors, just the method.

Step 2: Cut strips of yarn about 2 feet long.

Step 3: Fold the yarn in half so there are two strands of equal length.

Step 4: Pull the ends of the yarn through the ‘circle’ and then back through the yarn loop. Now you should have a ‘knot’ on the bottom of the circle base. Keep doing this until the entire circle is covered. When you are done it almost resembles an octopus or squid with tentacles hanging. Tighten all the knots by pulling the string, and pushing up on the knot at the same time.

Step 5: Grab and then push all the strings back through the center hole so they hang from the other side. We did this with small groups of yarn each time, and it worked great.

Step 6: Now grab the strands and tie a tight knot with a thread of yard about 1/4 way up. This will create the head part of the beanie, so it can be a bit shorter or taller, to your liking. Now, it’s time to cut the pom pom on top. Cut all the loose ends above the knot, and the extra string at the end of the knot. I love big pom poms on top of beanies, so it can stay big, or you can make it a smaller pom pom.

Step 7: Stuff the DIY beanie with some squares of toilet paper. You should have plenty if you’re like the rest of Americans who freaked out and over-bought toilet paper. Or maybe you already went through your stash, and can’t find any (kinda like our current situation). If you want to decorate your beanie to look fancy, or just extra cute, use a hot glue gun to glue glitter or pearls like we did.

Step 8: Top your wine bottle with the coziest DIY beanie wine topper ever!! Tell your friends to use year after year, or re-gift. If you want the labels we made for extra flair, click here. Just print them on Astrobrights Sticker Paper, cut and you’re done.
