Necessary materials.

The minimum set of materials includes a glass bottle, thread (twine), glue and beads for decoration. The glue for work can be different, it most likely depends on the choice of the designer himself, it is fashionable to use PVA-M, moment universal or moment gel, and of course you can use a glue gun using glue cartridges. Materials for decoration can also be different, beads of different colors and shapes, beads, rhinestones, lace, buttons, dried flowers and much more. It all depends on imagination and desire. You can combine twine wrapping and painting. Exactly the same as it can be different decor, the shape of the selected bottle can also be varied.

Once all the materials have been collected, begin preparatory work for decoupage. Wash the bottle well, removing stickers. Give time for complete drying. We start from the bottom of the bottle. To do this, coat a small strip of glue and wrap it with twine, pressing and pulling the thread tightly. For beauty and some zest, you can crochet a braid and start the first row with it, smoothly turning into simple turns of thread.
As one of many options, you can make a gap by retreating to an arbitrary height and continue wrapping the bottle. As you approach the neck, the glue strip can be increased in height. This will reduce the time spent a little. Using the same principle, we wrap the cork from the bottle.
Decor of a prepared glass bottle.
When the main part of the work is done, you can start decorating. In this case, as a decoration for a beginner, we suggest making curls from the same twine in the gap left and attaching them to the bottle with glue. We glue a bead pre-selected according to color, shape and desire into the coil itself. You can also add a bow made from twine if you wish. As you gain experience in this direction, the decor can become more complex. In the gap left, you can paint with acrylic paints, from simple geometry to individual compositions that match the color and contrast of the bottle shape and twine chosen for this work.

An ordinary bottle transformed in this way turns into a vase, which can be used to decorate any room, be it a balcony, hallway or any room. You can fill it with water and place fresh flowers without fear. You can close it with a decorated cork and get a simple figurine.Bottles can be decoupaged using twine of any color, acrylic paints, and all kinds of materials can be used in decoration. It all depends on the flight of fancy. We wish you success and interesting ideas in this work.
