Ordinary glass bottles, which most people throw away, can be turned into a beautiful element of decor. And most importantly, it does not take much time and does not require large financial expenditures. If you like hand-made things, then this master class is for you. Such things will fit into most styles, such as or vintage.

  • White bath salt

On the bottle you need to wind the gum. It is necessary to do this carefully, so that the layers of gum lay tightly to the glass and never tucked around.
  Then the bottle must be placed in a protected place. If the painting takes place on the street, it is necessary to choose a space without wind and dust, so that the dirt does not fall on the freshly applied paint. For this you can use cardboard from the old box. Paint is evenly applied to the bottle and left to dry.

After the paint is completely dry, the bottle must be smeared with glue. Pour salt on paper and roll a bottle over it. After that, leave to dry. When the glue is dry, you can remove the gum. This should be done very carefully so as not to damage the layers of paint and salt.

The paint must be poured into the bottle, then shake and twist the bottle and put it down the neck. When the first layer dries and excess paint runs out, you can repeat the procedure so that there are no gaps left.


Bright bottles will be the highlight of any interior. Such a vase can decorate the bedroom and living room and kitchen.


Fourth option glass bottle decor: water drops

In order to create such an interesting effect on the surface of the bottle, it is enough to use only spray paint. Need metallic paint. The bottle must be washed and not wiping it, while there are drops of water on it, apply paint on it. Let it dry.

Other options

When you make bottles you can use almost everything that you have on hand. In order to broaden my horizons, besides the examples detailed above, I want to offer you a couple more interesting options for decorating glass containers for consideration:

  1. Cereals and pasta. The bottle can be decorated even with what you can find in the kitchen. In fact, this method is similar to that where the twine was used, only pasted instead of rope buckwheat, pasta, rice and other products, which are then painted;


  1. Toilet paper. Even such an unremarkable household item can turn glass containers into a work of art:
  • First, with toilet paper, paste over the entire bottle;
  • Then we twist thin flagella out of it and glue them in the form of various patterns;
  • After the glue dries, paint the background of the composition with white acrylic paint, after which we direct the remaining fragments in other colors;

The advantages of decorating bottles with their own hands

Finally, I propose to deal with the advantages that do-it-yourself bottle decoration:

  • Lowprice. It will be much more expensive to buy a ready-made original gift or decorative item. So now, when you go on a visit, you can both please the hosts and save the family budget;
  • Opportunity to part withvarious unnecessary items. Instead of the same pasta, you can use parts from a broken household appliance, which was supposed to go to a landfill, toilet paper is easily replaced by old newspapers, and even instead of twine, no one will forbid you to use threads from a sweater eaten by moths;


  • Fascinating hobbywhich can even grow into extra income. Indeed, as I have already noted, the original beautiful handicrafts are not cheap;

Conclusion

You have learned how to decorate a glass bottle with your own hands. This process can be not only exciting, but also profitable.

The video in this article contains additional material on the topic, and in the comments you can ask any questions you are interested in.


For any person, the house is considered the territory of personal space, which the owner draws up in accordance with their preferences and taste. It is in the house with the help of small details that a balance of comfort and functional convenience is achieved. A pinch of imagination, a few spoons of free time, a couple of pieces of patience, half a cup with creativity and a recipe for the perfect decoration of your home is ready. Decorating bottles with their own hands refers to the type of design activity, which is now called “hand-made”, that is, something made with your own hands. Quite often we throw away used things or objects that, it would seem, have already served their time and have no right to a second life.


Decorating bottles or “recipes” of their design can pleasantly surprise with originality, beauty and refinement.

In fact, this is just a container that is of no interest in itself, however, using simple materials from glass bottles, you can make lamps, candlesticks, flower vases, ceiling lamps, painted pencil coasters, lampshades, bird feeders.



  Chandelier from cut wine bottles

Candlesticks can be made of three types: ordinary under long candles, which will require only decoration work on the glass; candlesticks covering a candle with a cut off bottom; hinged with a cut-off bottom, in which the candle is mounted on a special chain, stretched through the neck.

The most original are vases from under the bottles with cut-off necks: sections on several bottles are made at different angles and the original composition in the style of minimalism is obtained.



If the colors of the glass are beautifully chosen, then you don’t even need to paint. Now use of bottles as the bearing "sides" of shelves enjoys wide popularity. In the wooden shelves or table tops, holes are drilled with a diameter under the neck of the bottle and “put” on an empty glass container, which holds it well. Some on the upper tiers in the open neck insert dry flowers and cute trinkets.

Cooking and glass cutting rules

Before proceeding to the decoration of the bottle, it must be cleaned of labels or possible remnants of the contents. To do this, the glass must be dipped in hot (but not boiling) water, and kept in a bowl for several minutes. After the glue under the label loosens its grip, you can wash the paper with a sponge. Now the glass has become clean and you need to decide whether to cut the container and, if necessary, in what way. Cutting the bottle with a special glass cutter is considered the simplest. If this tool is not available, you can use a little time consuming, but effective way.


To do this you will need:

  • Severe thread;
  • Alcohol-containing substance (White Water can be used);
  • Bowl with hot water;
  • Bowl with cold water;
  • Matches

The bottle at the site of the future cut must be wrapped in several layers with a harsh thread well impregnated with an alcohol-containing solution. The thread must be set on fire and while it is burning, quickly rotate the container. Then put it in hot water, hold it for about four minutes, drastically pull it out and dip it in cold water.


The temperature difference provokes the occurrence of cracks in the place designated by the thread. The only drawback with this method may be not quite an even cut. If you need perfect accuracy, you will have to use a glass cutter.

Drawing pattern

The material is ready, the necessary sections are made now you can proceed to the most creative part of the work-decorating. If you can't draw, it won't be a serious obstacle.


Sketches of the picture can always be found on the Internet and use the already finished works of talented artists. It is easy to decide on paints: stained glass paints specifically designed for glass are considered to be the best option.


To work with stained paints, a degreaser is needed, which needs to be lubricated before applying the paint. You can also use acrylic, but its effect will be somewhat different: acrylic will not completely fill the glass, no matter how many layers you apply.

The next item will be the choice of style in which the painting will be made. Now the most popular are dot painting and stained painting. For the first one, the drawing is characterized by small droplets-dots, for the second - an almost indistinguishable resemblance to mosaic glass, made of separate pieces of different colors. Combining a technician requires a certain amount of preparation and “full hands” in drawing.


If it is difficult for you to rush off the bat, you should practice on paper. For beginning artists, it is important to remember that the main details of the drawing are drawn first, and the little things are left at the final stage. It should stock up with cotton buds, with which you can correct minor flaws.


Pasting as a decoration method

Another excellent design option for a bottle with your own hands can be pasting glass with various trifles: from silk ribbons and rhinestones to buttons and beads. Very popular bottle decoration using ordinary twine.






The thread is glued to the glass with layers and with the help of various twists they create a composite pattern. As a result, a “semi-antique” effect with rustic motifs is created. These bottles will look great in the kitchen.



  Jute bottle decoration




Specifically, for this room you can fill a transparent container with peas, grains of corn, chopped carrots and pour all this food variety with heated 9% vinegar. Spread slices of products you need layers, it will help to achieve a slim composition. You can either clog it with a regular cork or with a cork covered with a cloth (most often with a checkered pattern), and wrap with a twine on top.




Several of these bottles and cans will be the original design decision that will decorate a kitchen shelf.



  Color sand in a bottle with quilling


Decoupage technique

The essence of decoupage is to transfer the image / pattern to the surface and fix it with a special varnish. Decoupage is a very old technique of decorating bottles and not only.


She received a new life just a decade ago, when many craftswomen began to learn it from scratch and gradually dilute it with modern design techniques.


For work you will need:

  • Tassels;
  • Glue;
  • Basis with a picture;
  Painting on toilet paper on wine bottles

A clean surface is coated with varnish and transferred onto it. After complete drying, the pattern is coated with varnish for fastening. It is best to use bristle brushes for such purposes. At the discretion of the needlewoman, you can add a border of silk ribbon or beads to the pattern.

  Pasting a bottle with a newspaper at home is a simple and effective technique.

Focus on the little things

Letting your imagination fly, you can create a truly magnificent element with your own hands, worthy of a creative exhibition.

Thanks to the little things in your house there will be a feeling of unique comfort.


This applies not only to the decor of the bottles: small embroidered pads, cute trinkets, embroidered linen, beaded trees, knitted plaids, painted ceramic objects.


You can always bring a drop of heat into your personal space, spending not too much time. And even if it seems to you that you have no talent for needlework, only a few hours of work will show you how exciting this process is.


Do-it-yourself bottle decor can be not only an exciting creative process, but also a wonderful pastime for the whole family.
