Hey Everyone Suzanne here
I was given this bottle and loved the shape so thought why not decorate it
I also created a Youtube video here's the LINK
Make sure you check out the rest of the blog to see what other great projects have been created overtime you never know what might catch your eye and give you some inspiration for your next project
These are the Helmar glues I used through the whole process for the metal and heavier things I used the Premium Craft Glue, for the string and large beads I used the Super-Tac Glue and the Tacky Craft Glue I used for all the little beads and paper clay.
I used a stencil randomly over the bottle with some texture paste then painted it with black gesso.
I also wound string around the top and bottom of the bottle for more texture.
I used some muslin over the bottle for some added dimension.
I then started adding my embellishments using the different glues depending on what I was putting on the bottle.
Making sure to add something to the lid.
Then covering the whole lot in black gesso.
Then I chose 5 different colours of the Finnabair waxes – White Gold, Rose Gold, Old Silver, Vintage Silk and Turquoise Satin which is the main colour I used on the whole bottle.
Thank you for visiting and I hope you come back soon x
