Full details

This product is for environmentally conscious individuals looking to upcycle plastic bottles into decorative home accents. The key benefit is transforming waste into stylish vases with a unique cut glass design. A potential caveat is that it requires some minor customization for different bottle sizes.

It features a reversible design with a 'Cut Glass' pattern on both sides, is made from recycled board, and ships flat for easy mailing.

FAQs

How do I make the vase hold water?

The cardboard sleeve is decorative. You need to place a watertight plastic bottle inside the sleeve to hold the water and flowers.

Can I cut the sleeve to a specific height?

Yes, the sleeve is designed to be cut down to your desired height using scissors for a perfect fit.

What is the sleeve made of?

The sleeve is made from recycled cardboard.

How do I clean the vase sleeve?

Wipe gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking or using harsh cleaning agents.

Can I use this with glass bottles?

While it might fit, the sleeve is primarily designed to cover and upcycle plastic bottles. The fit may not be optimal for all glass bottle shapes.

Does the 'Cut Glass' design look the same on both sides?

Yes, the 'Cut Glass' design is present on both sides of the sleeve, offering a choice of which visual aspect you prefer.

Is this product waterproof?

No, the cardboard sleeve itself is not waterproof. The plastic bottle placed inside holds the water.

Troubleshooting

Sleeve does not fit snugly on the bottle.

Ensure you have cut the top of the sleeve to the correct height. If the bottle is narrower than average, you may need to add a small piece of tape to secure the sleeve.

The cardboard is creased or damaged.

As the product ships flat, check the packaging. If damaged upon arrival, contact customer support for a replacement.

Pattern appears faded or uneven.

This is part of the design. The 'Cut Glass' pattern has variations. Ensure you are viewing the preferred side if it seems inconsistent.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Select a clean, empty plastic bottle.
  2. Measure the desired height for your vase. The sleeve can be cut down to size using scissors.
  3. Carefully cut the top of the cardboard sleeve to match the required height.
  4. Slip the cut sleeve over the plastic bottle. Ensure it fits snugly.

Compatibility:

Care:
