Dark amber S.N. bottle

Currently: SOLD
My first Simply Nouveau labeled bottle!


This is a dark amber glass with purple grapes and a chocolate bow that ties in nicely with the cream and charcoal tones of my new labels.

Green King Estate with Label

Currently: SOLD








My friend, Patrick said that drinking this Gwertz from King Estate is like "drinking flowers". I would have to agree. Now, with the help of some twinkly lights, this bottle of wine is like looking at flowers too. Prettyyyyyy.








My Own Labels

I needed some labels to apply to my wine bottles. I like the plain ones, but there is also definately an appeal to the ones with the labels still on them. Having been unsucessful at obtaining an alleged "label remover" I read about online, I came up with another solution...


I went to a neat little website I found by accident called My Own Labels (http://www.myownlabels.com/). They were great, easy to use, and they print up a fantastic product. It's so professional looking. They have all kinds of styles and then they have at least five color choices of each label. I went with some smaller labels, about the same size as Benton Lane uses. They are secretly supposed to be for baked goods, but the actual wine labels were bigger than I wanted anyway.

Laurel Ridge bottle


Currently: SOLD (to another Laurel Ridge lover, along with another super cool bottle I didn't have a chance to take a picture of!)


One of the few bottles that I kept the label on, this bottle came from Laurel Ridge in Carlton, Oregon. My favorite vinyard.
