I saw this post on Pinterest, and adapted it to my own design.

I started by taking off the labels from the bottles. I soaked them in the sink for a while with soapy water. This helped the paper peel off. I think just hand washed them as if I was washing the dishes.
I used Gloss Enamel Paint from Michaels because it bonds to glass.

It took several coats of paint to cover each bottle. Make sure you let to dry completely before adding a new coat.
I found pumpkin carving images online, printed them, and cut them out with a x acto knife.
With the stencils on, I painted over them, let it dry, and Wahla!
Keep in mind : do not soak the paper with paint: it will bleed through. Thicker paper is recommended.
