Find a nice big basket or gift box. Fill with shredded tissue or cellophane, lay the bottle in the middle and the flutes either side, wrap in cello and
add a big lovely bow.
Oh and add some champagne truffles as well!0 -

oooh I love those ideas - any ideas where to get some shredded cellophane from? I guess I could get hold of a box & wrap in paper to keep costs down?

Our local poundland sometimes have stainless steel ice buckets with tongs, loads of shredded red tissue in various shops would stand out nice against the stainless steel, the irridescent tissue is normally a lot more expensive than the regular shred, that will give you a solid base to wrap in cellophane and top with a big bow to match the shred0

Do you own or have access to a shredder? Make your own0 -
Iridescent shredded cellophane has multi colours in it, although its clear it will shine a different colour as the light hits it, regular cellohane is not the same it will say clear and on its own doesnt show wellyummymummy888888 wrote: »Do you own or have access to a shredder? Make your own

couldnt find out how much weight each of these bags are.
If you want to use clear florists cellophane the best way to get " impact" is to wrap something circular ( ie something terrys chocolate orange size ) or a 5" tiny balloon, get at least 2 squares of cellophane and wrap by placing object in cntre then lift opposite corners then " gather the rest in" tie it tight just above the circle and splay out the peaks of the cellophane you could pop that inbetween the glasses it would give a nice wow effect, or have the bottle in the middle with one padding either side inbetween the bottle and glass0
