Lovelies, we have a fun DIY bottle chandelier project for you today and it uses the new super lovely Diet Coke “It’s Mine” bottles! Have you seen them in stores yet? They are fabulous!
Haven’t heard of these bottle yet? We have the inside scoop for you! Every Diet Coke bottle is completely unique which means you can have a bottle that no one else in the world owns. How cool is that?! No two bottles are the same and each one has it’s own fabulous design on it. There are cans and even mini aluminum bottles with these designs but our favorite is the glass bottles. It is like taking the amazing retro bottle that we all love and bringing it into a modern era with these amazing designs. Now everyone can drink fashionably with millions of looks but same great taste!
We picked up ours at Albertsons! They have an amazing display full of all different “It’s Mine” bottles. Even the display is a bottle so you can’t miss it. We found ours right at the end of the soda aisle, which happens to be right next to the chips. Everyone knows there isn’t a better combo than soda and chips!

Now Project Time!
We were so inspired by the different designs on the “It’s Mine” bottles and our favorite pattern that we spotted are the ones that have watercolor brush strokes on them. Watercolor adds such a lovely look and feel to designs and the ones on the new Diet Coke bottles have such amazing colors on top of that like peaches and greys to fushias and navy. Even though these bottles are all different, their soft color pallets and brush stroke design brought them all together. We thought this pattern would pop even more if it had a light behind it and if you made it into a chandelier, all those colors would cast on the wall creating this amazing look that is great for parties or even home decor. Just wait until you see it, it’s pretty awe-inspiring!
