You also need to choose the type of stained glass paints: non-fired, to fix which heat treatment is not required, or fired, which can finally be fixed only after being subjected to heat treatment. The first option (non-fired paints) for painting decorative bottles is preferable, but note that they will dry for about 3-5 days.

Once you have the right amount of colored material, you can pour salt into the container. The easiest way to do this is with a funnel.

The thickness of the layers and the combination of colors are determined in accordance with their tastes. You can fill in the salt of each color in turn, using a supply of material without residue. For example, all green, then yellow, and then red. Or often alternate different colors in any sequence that you like.

To make a bottle decorative, it is not necessary to paint, paint or decorate it using decoupage technique. It will be enough to fill it with beautiful fruits or vegetables - often this method is called decorative preservation. Of course, this type of design cannot be called very easy, but the result is definitely worth the effort and time.

For decor you will need:

• a beautifully shaped bottle;
• some vegetables or fruits. For example, you can use slices and peppers of various colors, beans, peas and so on.
• preservative. As a preservative, you can use: 9%, acetic acid, strong hydrochloric solution, 70% ethyl alcohol or medical formalin.

Operating procedure:

1. A clear bottle of a beautiful shape is freed from labels, glue residue and washed thoroughly, then sterilized for at least 5 minutes.
2. Thoroughly clean, wash and, if necessary, grind selected ingredients.
3. They are randomly placed in a bottle.
4. As soon as the container is filled to the desired level, it is poured to the top with the selected preservative.
5. To prevent air from entering, the neck can be filled with wax melted in a water bath, after which the bottle is closed with a stopper.
6. Everything, stylish decoration is ready!

Important!  Whatever preservative you choose for decorative preservation, note that each of them has its drawbacks:

• vinegar (9%) changes the color of the products. In addition, it must be brought to a boil (in a glass or enameled container), and only then pour into a bottle. The filled container is immediately closed with a lid and removed for two weeks in a dark place;
• acetic acid also affects the color of the raw material, making it more dull, with a greenish or yellowish tint;
• ethyl 70% alcohol does not change the color of the products initially, but over time they will become faded.
• medical formalin is a rather dangerous substance. When working with him, it is imperative to use personal protective equipment and observe fire safety measures.

Decoration with salt - option number 1

Pour salt into heat-resistant dishes, add acrylic paint and mix, kneading the resulting slurry with a fork. We place the mixture in the oven (100 degrees), after an hour we take it out, again we knead with a fork and sift through a sieve. It turns out something similar to colored sand. There are several types of such “sands” - different colors.

Advice! To get interesting shades, mix several colors of paint before adding it to the salt, kneading the resulting slurry with a fork.

We take a funnel and put salt in a bottle, alternating colors. It is important that the bottle inside is completely dry. When the vessel is filled to the top, close the bottle with a cork and decorate it as desired.

Decoration with salt - option number 2

Now we will decorate the bottle from the outside. We remove the labels and wrap an elastic band of at least 5 mm wide on the bottle body - in the form of a spiral or in random order.

Cover the bottle evenly whiteth paint, and after drying, apply glue. On a salt sprinkled on paper, put a bottle greased with glue, and carefully roll it. When the glue dries, remove the gum and get a bottle with patterns. You can dilute this bottle decor with sparkles and rhinestones. In this way, you can make the decor of bottles with semolina or other, more original things.

Decor of cereals and pasta

The decor of bottles with cereals is another interesting option for decorating a vessel. The main stages of work: remove all labels and degrease the glass with alcohol. We apply glue to the bottle and create several layers with a border in the form of a wavy line - glue the peas at the bottom, use rice, lentils, buckwheat and any other cereals above. Of curly pasta (bows, shells, leaves, etc.)  create an ornament or thematic drawing. We fix the pasta with glue on top of the layers of the cereal, we also decorate the cover with pasta. We paint the resulting creation - here it is better to use aerosol paint with a metallic effect.

After the glue dries, we cover the product with white acrylic paint. We take a napkin with a pattern, select the fragment we like, cut out and separate the top layer (most often, napkins with a pattern are multilayer). Glue a piece of napkin on the bottle and apply the main layer of paint of the selected color. After the paint dries, we coat the creases created when the bottles were decorated with cloth, acrylic pearl and cover the entire bottle with acrylic varnish.

Napkin with a picture - option number 2

Decor of tights bottles

For such an option as bottle decor with nylon tights, not only napkins may be needed. This time, instead of fabric, we use a nylon stocking. We impregnate it with glue and put it on the bottle. We also create chaotic folds, while the cork can be covered with a capron, and you can hold the stocking only up to the neck of the bottle - at the end of all stages of work, the impression will be that the bottle is in a kind of bag. Dry the glue and dry it again. Glue a piece of napkin, let it dry, paint the bottle in the main color.

We complete the decor with a ribbon, bow, braid, sparkles. Decor of bottles with tights is a great option not to throw away the spoiled thing, but to use it in a new quality.

Toilet paper as a decoration

Take a bottle of dark glass and white acrylic paint. Degrease the glass and apply an arbitrary pattern, wait for drying. We impregnate small pieces of toilet paper with glue and with their help create volumetric irregularities on the fragments covered with paint.

After the paper dries, we re-paint the area of \u200b\u200bthe drawing with paint. Now you can add rhinestones and open the entire product with varnish. Instead of toilet paper, bottle decoration can be used.

Winding twine is best starting from the bottom of the bottle.

It is impossible not to notice that the sale of paintings for artists is the main source of income, and if you have no time to visit the galleries do not forget to visit the site http://in.gallerix.ru/, where no one has already bought paintings online. About the pictures later, and now study the master class about.

In a world where everything can be bought, handwork is especially appreciated. To make the painting of the bottle with acrylic paints, it is not necessary to graduate from art school. You can find templates for ready-made drawings on the Internet or learn not very complicated techniques for creating your own sketch from a painting textbook. Of course, your own imagination will be important, but listen to some simple tips.

It is much easier to work with modern materials than it was a few dozen or hundreds of years ago. For example, acrylic paints practically have no unpleasant odor, dry quickly, you quickly get used to them and work with them with pleasure.

You can paint a bottle or a jar with stained-glass paints, but with acrylic paints - it is much easier to do this. Even a child will cope with such a task. And the work done by one’s own hands will amaze and delight for a long time. And not only you, because such a gift will stand out favorably.

Choose a bottle

The bottle is good in its volume. It does not fall, it does not need to be inserted into the frame, attached to something to hang on the wall - it is itself a finished frame, canvas and stand in one person. Which is better to choose a bottle for painting with acrylic paints: standard round or rectangular, from dark or light glass? In general, you can take any bottle. It is more difficult to apply a plot drawing to a round bottle, although you can cope with this if you fix the object in a horizontal position and rotate during operation. A simple ornament can be applied to any bottle. Color also does not matter much, since acrylic paints can repaint the bottle in any desired background.

We choose paints

Painting the bottles does not have to be done with acrylics, there are other types of materials, but acrylics have several advantages:

• smart palette of colors;
• lack of a specific smell;
• the ability to not spread over the bottle and not smeared;
• the ability to dry quickly, which allows you to apply several layers in a relatively short period of time;
• durability and light fastness.

The simplest example of painting a bottle with acrylic paints

There are masters who can create a real masterpiece from a bottle. It is covered with sequins, beads, a lace pattern, entire paintings are painted on the surface of the glass. But it is not necessary for a novice master to set himself extremely complex tasks. No one needs to paint a cathedral or landscape on a bottle. It is enough to fill the bottle with a completely plain acrylic paint and apply the most uncomplicated pattern. Sometimes a geometrically simple pattern or simple curls in a free style, provided that the whole bottle is covered with some interesting matte material, look original. Curls and ornament can be replaced with a congratulation inscription, a wish inscription or just an inscription - to your taste.

How to transfer a finished sketch to a bottle

The bottle will look spectacular if it is pre-coated with white (or any other light) paint, then on a dried surface draw a sketch with a pencil and paint it. You can go the other way - draw a sketch yourself on paper or print the finished version. Then wrap the bottle with this paper sketch, fix it and transfer the drawing to the glass through the carbon paper (or bold marker). Then bring a special contour. Wait until it dries and colorize. It should be remembered that acrylic paint dries quickly, this will allow you to apply paint in layers and achieve a decoupage effect or volume. Due to the same peculiarity, it is necessary to correct an unsuccessful line immediately.

• paints are tested;
• optimal color options are selected.

It is also advisable to have carbon paper, special contours, drawing on glass, adhesive tape, marker.
