Old RIP Van Winkle 10 year is the bourbon everybody wants, but only a few are lucky enough to find it. Buffalo Trace releases small quantities of Pappy Van Winkle and other rare  bourbons as part of their Antique Collection. If you do find one on the shelf or in the secondary market you might pay between $500-$2,000 for a Pappy Van Winkle Bottle.

They often say beauty comes from within, and we agree. Our limited addition decoupage lamp series proves that not every lamp needs a shade. Sit back, relax, and enjoy watching this distressed bottle light up from the inside. This lamp was handcrafted from a repurposed 750 ml Old Rip Van Winkle bourbon bottle and  provides a warm ambient glow. 

I use a decoupage staining technique to achieve a distressed look on the outside of the bottle. Copper LED strands are placed inside of the bottle through a rear drilled hole and are operated by remote control. You can turn your lamp on/off and adjust dimness levels, fade settings, and strobe speeds without even getting up from the couch. Pretty cool, right? LED coils are safe because they produce no heat inside the bottle,  they are also inexpensive to operate, and have a lifespan of 50,000 hours or 11 years so you don't have to worry about changing bulbs. 

 

I meticulously work on each bottle and use different materials, papers, and stains so each bottle has a unique design and look. No two bottles are ever the same!
