Wine Bottle Clothes: Love It or Hate It?

During the holiday season, it's hard to not give a bottle of wine or liquor as a last minute gift.

During the holiday season, it's hard to not give a bottle of wine or liquor as a last minute gift. I've already done it once and will most likely do it again in the next couple of weeks. While I prefer to make the bottle look like a pretty present, these knitted clothes that personify the alcohol bottle kind of creep me out. Wine doesn't need to be kept warm and gin doesn't need to look like Santa Claus. As far as I'm concerned wine bottle clothes or accessories are a waste of money. How do you feel about them?
