For today, I have a fantastic decorative bottle DIY that gives you something to do with those glass bottles lying around your house. I started collecting bottles a couple months ago with no particular reason in mind and we decided to put them to good use during the holidays! These can become candle holders, vases for your favorite real or fake flowers, or just let it stand alone! I think they look beautiful clustered together for a centerpiece or on a mantel. :)

S U P P L I E S N E E D E D:
1. Paint brushes.
2. Painters tape.
3. Martha Stewart Glitter paint for multi-purpose surfaces.
4. White and gold spray paint.
5. Glass bottles.
D I Y S T E P S:
Solid Glass Bottles
1. On newspaper carefully spray paint the outside of the bottle.
2. Let dry.
Gold Striped Bottle
1. Put painters tape around the middle of your bottle.
2. Use gold spray paint to paint the remainder of the bottle.
3. Let dry and then peal off tape.
Glitter Bottle
1. With a paint brush use the glitter paint and paint all around the bottle.
2. Let dry and apply another coat or two.
After you're done, place holly branches, flowers, tea lights inside...anything to fancy them up. :)

ReplyDeleteI have two glass milk jars like this and they've been sitting in my cupboard for a while now. This is a perfect craft to spruce them up and find more use for them. :D
ReplyDeleteI love that you left the little swath free of gold. Very cool!
