Flower Basket made from a Champagne Bottle Top

I asked for all of the champagne bottle tops from my brother in-law's wedding last year, at the time I knew one day I would figure out something good to make with them. I was looking for material to try to make hanging baskets for the townhouse balconies and I found the bag and I knew finally what to do with them. I snipped the top round part in half, pulled it out and turned all of the "loops" so I could tread it back through, twisted the wire and made a hook and cut off the extra wire. I just stuck that flower remnant in to get an idea of what it might look like with the ferns I plan to make later and I also plan to paint it black.
