Christmas Bottle

Hi everyone,

Well it’s nearly that time of year when we celebrate with tinsel, glitter and the good old red, green and gold of Christmas! 

But I have mixed it up using Gold, Blue and Brown colours.

I have created this cute light up bottle from a recycled wine bottle and a string of little lights attached to a cork stop.

I have used the good old H3000 cleaner to remove the label off my bottle.

I have given the bottle a light coat of white gesso.

Then I started colouring it using alcohol inks allowing them to drip and run down the sides of the bottle.

Next step was to attach my napkin designs I have chosen Xmas trees and a border trim…

which I have stuck on the bottles using the Acid Free Glue that I have watered down.

Once attached, I allowed these to dry before adding more alcohol ink runs to blend it all together.

Once all completely dry, I have outlined the Xmas trees using Liquid pearls in matching colours.

I have finished off my bottle by adding some glittery poinsettias to the cork top with a few holly berries attached with my all time favourite 450 Quick Dry Adhesive.
