Hand-Painted Bottle
“Galaxy in a Bottle”
Why throw away empty glass bottles, when you can make them into fun art?
These are usually empty liquor bottles gathered from a local bar, but are sometimes fun bottles found at the thrift store. Most bottles are painted on using acrylic paints with a touch of spray paint, then finished with a coat of satin varnish.
The varnish serves as a protective coating while also intensifying the appearance of colors by the refraction of light.
These bottles make for a very unique addition to anyone’s home. Display them as is, or use them for things like propagating plants or even to hold a few flowers. These are also great gifts if you’re looking for something unique and personal, but also affordable!
