I really liked this bottle because the screw top was old and I liked the printing on the bottle. I painted the bottle with aqua acrylic paint many times, with drying time in between the coats of paint. I printed off a clock face from Graphic Fairy and just modge podged it onto the bottle. I had torn the edges of the clock because I wanted an old worn look. Once it had dried, I than antiqued it with cream paint and once that had dried, I dry brushed gold acrylic paint on top. When I liked the look I sealed it with an acrylic sealer.
So what do you think? I think it makes a cute colorful accent piece that would have otherwise been thrown away.....Until next time, Dianne..............
