How to personalize a wood bottle caddy

I found this wood caddy at HomeGoods but you can order it online here. It’s a sturdy, rustic style holder with a built-in metal bottle opener. So it’s cool and purposeful. The wood slats on the side are the perfect place to add a personalized message. Just follow the simple steps below:

Supplies or Ingredients Needed: 

• Wood bottle caddy – like this one
• Alphabet stamp set – like this one and ink pad
• Ultra Fine Point Sharpie marker
• Sandpaper, optional
• Access to a computer and color printer
• White cardstock or paper
• Scissors

Instructions:

This is such a simple craft! You can even involve your kids in this DIY father’s day gift idea and they can decorate it too.

1. Measure where your message will go.

I did a simple “cheers” message and I wanted it centered on my caddy. When adding your personalization, figure where the center of the word or phrase is and line it up to the center of the caddy. Next, stamp the letters on either side of the center mark, then stamp the rest of the letters on the caddy, out from each side.

2. Clean up any unwanted marks.

If you have some extra ink marks from the stamps you can lightly sand them off. This step isn’t necessary though, the additional ink just adds to the rustic look.

3. fill in your letters.

The ink for stamping is a little faint on the wood, so I use an Ultra Fine Point Sharpie marker to fill in the letters.

4. Add your ribbon and favorite beverage.

A rustic burlap ribbon tied to the handle adds a finishing touch. Then add your recipient’s favorite beverage.

5. don’t forget the free gift tag!

I painted these fun tags that you can add to this caddy – or use them for any Father’s Day gift.
