Champagne is an integral attribute of the New Year holidays; it is drunk during the chimes and is often given as a gift when visiting. If you also support the tradition of presenting friends and family with a bottle of sparkling drink, then you have probably thought about how to make this mini-present more interesting.
We also thought about this and put together several worthwhile master classes that we want to share with you. After reading this article, you can easily make festive, bright and creative champagne with sweets with your own hands.
Decorating a bottle of champagne for the New Year with candies
We bring to your attention an unusual variation of decorating champagne for the New Year with candies - pineapple. Materials :
- champagne;
- corrugated paper (green);
- glue gun;
- twine;
- scissors;
- about 60 candies (in gold wrappers).
Step-by-step instruction:
- Remove any labels from the bottle. Place in water (summer or cool) for half an hour, then remove lightly and wipe with a towel.
- Cut out about 10-12 leaves from green paper. Attach them to the top of the bottle (with glue) and leave to dry.
- Take one candy at a time and glue it to the bottle (from bottom to top). If you wish, you can put yellow foil paper under each candy, it will turn out a little brighter and more interesting.
- Tie the bottle with twine at the top (at the junction of sheets and candies), tying a small bow.
Safety precautions
Before you decorate a bottle of champagne with your own hands, you should definitely familiarize yourself with safety precautions. After all, if handled incorrectly, champagne can explode, causing dangerous injuries with fragments.
For the first experience, it is advisable to completely abandon the rather capricious champagne. It is better to start decorating experiments with safer bottles of non-sparkling drinks - since decorating bottles of cognac or wine is easier (the likelihood of being injured during the work is lower). Such drinks are not under high pressure and will not explode when decorated.
If it is necessary to design a bottle of champagne, then you need to follow a number of mandatory rules:
- Before starting work, you need to carefully inspect the workpiece . The slightest cracks, chips, uneven color of the bottle (glass thickness) indicate that it is not suitable for decoration;
- avoid sudden temperature changes . You cannot start working with a bottle recently removed from the refrigerator or brought from a cold street;
- Do not heat champagne while working (use a hairdryer to dry individual layers of paint, use a heat gun, etc.);
- Do not shake the contents of the bottle. Movements during operation should be moderately smooth and uniform; a sharp shake can lead to spontaneous opening of the plug.
It is worth noting that even strict adherence to all the rules does not guarantee one hundred percent safety, but only reduces the risk of injury to a minimum.
At the same time, decorating champagne with your own hands is an exciting and fascinating process; for many, such decoration becomes an original and interesting hobby.

Ideas for who to give as a gift
Who can you give such an interesting fake as a pineapple made from sweets and champagne:
- Do-it-yourself pineapple made from sweets and champagne is given as a gift for New Year's holidays and anniversaries . For a New Year's gift, packaging in the shape of a flashlight is suitable. Measure and cut a sheet of paper to the required length.
The third part of the sheet of paper is drawn and cut into strips. The pineapple is wrapped in paper, the fringe is in its upper part. The edges of the sheet are glued vertically to the fringe. The fringe ribbons are folded to the bottom and tied with a cord and ribbon.
- Pineapple with children's champagne can be presented to your child as a New Year's set of sweets. New Year's, artistically created children's pineapples are packed in original bags. The bags are shaped like snowmen, deer, Christmas trees, and bears.
The outline of the design is applied to the gift bag of the required size and cut out. The side slits are sealed, and a cardboard circle is placed under the base. The pineapple is placed inside. For fairy-tale characters, noses, ears, eyes, horns, scarves, and hats are cut out and pasted on. The Christmas tree-shaped package is decorated with cut out balls and snowflakes.
If you use an empty bottle when making a souvenir, unwrap the candies, and wrap small paper balls in candy wrappers, you will get a flower vase as a gift for a woman.
- A gift pineapple for a man with a bottle of cognac can be packed in a shirt sleeve. The bottle of candy is placed in the sleeve of the shirt, with the neck facing the cuff. The sleeve is cut off and a circle of fabric is sewn to the bottom. The sleeve is straightened out over the pineapple.
It is better not to fasten all the buttons on the cuff so that the foliage is not tightly compressed. The neck is tied with a gift bow or tie, which is an additional gift.
The most ordinary gifts can be made unforgettable. This is how a bottle of champagne covered with candies turns into an artistic pineapple - a wonderful handmade gift.

Holiday present
Perhaps a bottle of champagne with a selection of chocolates is just an addition to the main gift. Then you should think about the overall color scheme. Let's say the packaging of the gift you have prepared is blue, in this case we recommend decorating the bottle in the same color. For decoration, prepare the following: a set of identical blue candies, silver tinsel, a glue gun, champagne, thin wire or thread and a bow.
- The first step is to thread the wire onto the ends of the candies. To do this, make a small hole in the candy wrapper and thread the wire. Now hang such a blank on tinsel. The candy should not hang down like a Christmas tree toy. On the contrary, it should be almost close to the tinsel.

- When the decoration is complete, decorate the neck of the champagne with a large and colorful ribbon bow. This gift will definitely please your loved ones and will perfectly complement the main present.
