Greetings!!!
Materials required
Any glass bottle of your choice
decoupage tissues
decorative elements like jute ribbon, floral embellishments, stamps
gold paint and sponges
modpodge or decoupage glue
glue gun or any other strong adhesive
Now lets get crafting
First step clean up your bottle and prepare it for decoupaging. Apply a coat of primer or white acrylic paint and let it dry. Applying with sponge makes the work easy as well covered.
Second step fuzzy cut your tissue that is cut along the outline of the design or the flower what you want on your bottle. After cutting it out seperate the layers of the tissue. Usually tissues are 3 ply. discard the white layers. Keep your cut flowers aside.
Third step At this stage you can directly modpodge the tissue on to the bottle. But I wanted a gold touch, So I sponged the gold paint above the white painted layer. Let it dry.
After it is completely dry, brush on a tiny amount of modpodge on to the bottle where you want to place your tissue. The stick the cut flowers and brush on the modpoge over it to seal the edges. Continue till you are done with all the pieces and achieved preferred design. Let it dry well.
For the second bottle I tried to bring in mixed media effect and kind of light crackle. So after the gold layer dries add a generous layer of thick while glue. Before the glue starts to dry brush on white acrylic paint very lightly in vertical strokes without disturbing the glue layer. When it dries the white layer will start cracking and creating channels revealing the gold behind. Leave it to dry well.
Last step is adding embellishments. Position your lace or burlap and stick it down with a strong adhesive. Add a floral sticker for enhanced look. I stamped a heart shape in black on random spots. These are completely optional.
So these are two different kind of looks. It makes a good pair and an excellent home decor. It gives a very aesthetic look on your hutch or entry way table or even corner tables. Can be used as is or used as a flower vase.
I am very happy to have started on the blogging journey on crafting in the month filled with love. Yes February all filled with love in the air. Although my crafting journey has started with papercrafts, but off late I have been too much into jewelry making. Now time to rekindle my interest in other type of crafts. so today we will see my first decoupage try.
