Thanks Everyone for your great response on my previous blog post in which I share How To Make Homemade Dough for Crafts & Jewelry Making. I am glad to know your feedback about my dough crafts.
So today I am going to share another fun dough craft embellishment idea
for you. I hope you will like this recycling & decoration idea.
Have a look here:
I
love recycling & reusing ordinary stuff. I like spicing up some
ordinary junk with a touch of creativity. Transformation is always a fun
task to do. So here today I am recycling & beautifying an ordinary
glass bottle with dough flowers. If you are a crafty hoarder like me, I
am sure you will have some empty glass bottles in your kitchen cabinet.
So why not to design one today.
If you have made some dough by following my recipe in previous post. You will now able to decorate a bottle with dough flowers & embellishments. I am going to share steps How To Decorate & Embellish Glass bottle With Dough Flowers. Let’s see step by step tutorial.
Wash the empty glass bottle & let it dry well.
Use transparent glue on the area where you want to paste some soft dough.
Make a thick strip of soft dough & fix it on the bottle the way you want. I put it in a light swirl on the bottle. Coat it with transparent glue.
Start fixing dry dough flowers on soft dough strip. If your dough strip is thin, You will not be able to fix flowers nicely. You need to have a thick layer in which flowers can be easily fixed. You can glue the back side of the flowers & embellishment for fixing more well.
Fix flowers, petals & fillers accordingly on your bottle. Let them fix & wait for a few hours.
After
pasting & fixing all flowers, Let it dry. transparent glue will
disappear in an hour & dough will be stable in few hours. Dough will
not get dry in an hour, It will take 24 hours minimum as the strip is
applied thick.
After 24 hours, I spray paint the bottle. I wore plastic gloves to save my hands from spray shower & spread a sheet on the floor as well to protect the surface from spray paint.
Paint the bottle from all sides. I use silver spray paint, It’s grey when wet & turned silver in an hour when gets dry.
I paint some glass paints on the flowers, petals & fillers. A
touch of soft colors looks more proper I guess. What do you think?
Share this tutorial collage on your social media networks. I hope you will like this idea. Isn’t it a cute gift idea?
If you haven’t yet made dough with my recipe, You should give it a try. Because in my next blog post I will be sharing another idea how to decorate a box with dough flowers. So you still have time to make some dough until then. So you will decorate some cool stuff.
