Quick, easy and fun, gift for all.


Material

  • Glass Bottle(s)
  • White paint, coloured paint optional
  • Brush or sponge for applying paint
  • Newspaper

Method

  1. Clean bottle, I wash then rinse in hot water to save drying with towel and avoiding lint.
  2. Lay newspaper over surface that you are using
  3. Apply first coat of paint (I use a brush for first and second coats) allow to dry and add second coat then allow to dry.
  4. For final coat use a brush, sponge or any desired tool as this will be the finishing look. You can use colour if you wish. Allow to dry. I used a sponge in mine shown above.
  5. Decorate with what you wish and add your choice of flower or plant. Enjoy!

Notes

I like to make these with the kids! It is fun and makes a really nice feature to your home and a perfect gift for a loved one.
