YOW! Advent Calendar

YOW! Advent calendar – the 8th door

“I gave him some Kerschgeist and he got drunk!”

Trans.: “He (Kaspar Brandner) plied him (Boandlkrama = the Grim Reaper) with cherry brandy and cheated at cards,” exclaims the Archangel Michael indignantly when he realises that the heavenly accounts do not add up.
From: *Kaspar the Distiller and Eternal Life*.

  1. Plot the desired lettering onto self-adhesive flock film using a cutting plotter, weed the film and cover it with transfer film.
  2. Degrease the bottle and position the sticker.
  3. Press the lettering firmly into place, peel off the transfer film, pour in the Kerschgeist – and you’re done. You never know.
