Hello,
Today I am sharing a new post with you which is "Recycled Center Piece Bottle".
Recycling means turning the materials from waste into something new, that's what this post is all about. Turing a waste glass bottle into something beautiful, which can enhance the beauty of your living room, center table, dining table, bedroom etc. Here is a picture of my recent work-
So let's start making this:
Procedure:
1) First, you need to wash the bottle properly in order to make sure that your work stays on that bottle. I recommend to use a sponge instead of brush in order to apply the first coat of primer. Applying primer with sponge will give an nonuniform base. But if you do the same with brush, that will leave strokes on the glass. Once it is dried, you can apply coat of acrylic paint. I have used peach color acrylic paint from Camlin.
2) Once the acrylic paint is dried, you can use decoupage tissues or paper in order to give an eye catching look. You can use mod podge in order to do the same. It requires at least 8-10 hours as drying time.
3) Before using embellishments, I will suggest to use waterproof varnish to seal the work done on your bottle. You have to give 3-4 hours drying time after applying varnish.
4) Now, you can use embellishments and decorate the bottle.
There you go, you will have your center piece ready. It's recycled, waterproof and most important - "Beautiful". It's also ideal for gifting purpose for any occasion. Let me end this post with a beautiful saying :
"Creativity is making marvelous out of the discarded."
Any ideas or suggestions are most welcome. Also, please pour in your love in the form of comments.
Happy Crafting :) :) See you soon.
Thanks,
