An ordinary bottle, a little construction putty and you get a beautiful thing for the home

Greetings, dear friends!

I want to show you how I made an exclusive vase for the house out of a glass bottle and putty. I did this craft a few years ago, but it still stands on the windowsill with a branch of sakura.

Here are the materials I used:

  • glass bottle;
  • Gypsum building putty for finishing work;
  • A piece of floral mesh;
  • Ordinary hair dryer;
  • A piece of sandpaper;
  • Acrylic paints and acrylic varnish.
These wide-mouthed bottles are often used to sell wine or juices. Floral netting can be purchased at a flower shop. Well, putty and paint and varnish in a hardware store.

Step 1.

First, I removed all the stickers from the bottle and washed it with dishwashing detergent, wiped it thoroughly. I primed the bottle with white acrylic paint using a piece of sponge.

It is necessary to primer so that the putty is better kept on the bottle. Even for a fortress, you can pour a little PVA glue into the putty.

I left the bottle to dry for several hours.

Step 2

I attached a floristic mesh to the bottle and applied putty through it. The mesh was removed immediately after applying the putty.

Putty turns out to be applied to a small area of ​​​​the bottle, it will not work all at once.

Dry the putty area with a hair dryer so that you can touch it with your hands. Then, in the same way, I applied putty further, periodically drying the areas with a hairdryer.

The neck of the bottle was smeared with putty with a straight finger.

I left the putty to dry for a few hours.

Step 3

When the putty had dried well, I sanded it lightly with sandpaper.

Step 4

I painted everything first with black acrylic paint.

Then, with a semi-dry brush, he applied white paint and bronze.

Step 5

Finished with acrylic varnish.
