So, here is latest creation! I love these because they can be done with nearly any type of bottle or jar, and they are super-cheap to make!
This was made with a glass bottle, although I think I would prefer plastic. You can use an empty alcohol bottle, vitamin bottle, etc. I drew my letters and designs on the bottle with marker, then traced with a hot glue gun. Once cooled, I painted the entire thing black with acrylic paint, being sure to get into all the crevices of the letters and designs. After that, it's whatever floats your boat in colors. I had some brown, orange and tan acrylic paint I just dobbed around to give it an old look. Then I used a light tan/yellow to highlight the raised parts of the glue design. Once dry, I covered with a coat of Modpodge and hot-glued a little jute around the top.
Cool, one-of-a-kind decor at hardly any cost to me!
