Supplies

  • Bottle
  • Rainbow Twine (or other colors)
  • Decoupage Glue
  • Clear acrylic craft paint
  • Cork for top

Directions

I used an old bottle, went to Home Depot and bought Rainbow Twine. It comes in about 4 or 5 other (solid) colors. Rainbow was more colorful and interesting to me.

I put decoupage glue on the bottle and wrapped around the bottle 5 times and pushed it up into place and held there till I was sure it was stuck tight. It gets easier as you go down the bottle.

After it was all wrapped, I put on 2 more coats of decoupage glue letting each coat dry in between coats.

Then I used Clear Acrylic Craft Paint on it to give some protection to the bottle. Put a cork in the top and it was finished.

Decoupage is the POOR MANS ART!

Thanks, I enjoyed doing it. I did another one for a friend that wanted one. I put the cork in & started from the cork, it looked better & sealed the cork in place.
