You want to remove any fingerprints so that the paint sticks better to the glass.
You should, if possible, swirl rubbing alcohol around the inside of the ornaments too.
This will help the Extreme Glitter stick a bit better.
You dont have to, but I recommend it if possible.
Otherwise you might have to do some touch up!
Paint the Bottles
Start with plain glass bottles.
These have been used, washed, and dried.
Tape off the bottles with masking tape to make random stripes.
Using the 5/8 dauber, paint the stripes with Silver Sterling.
Youll also paint Calypso Sky stripes and Warm White near the top.
Once youre done painting, remove the tape immediately and let the paint dry.
Paint the Silver Glitter Enamel paint over the top of the Silver Sterling paint and let dry.
Stencil the Bottles
Add asnowflakeadhesive stencil and stencil in Warm White using the 1/4 dauber.
Stencil small snowflakes with Calypso Sky.
Paint the Polka Dots
The next part is pretty fun!
Add dots on the bottles as shown using Calypso Sky with the end of a paint brush.
I love making polka dots!
Let the bottles dry completely while moving onto the next step.
They top off the bottles.
Fill the ornament with the Extreme Glitter.
Shake until the inside of ornament is covered.
Add more if needed.
They will dry to a beautiful sparkle!
Because you might mess up?
you’re free to also scrape paint off with a razor or craft knife.
Not that Im speaking from experience .
you could also add small silver ribbon around the lips of the bottles.
Its just another cute touch.
Your DIY Christmas centerpiece is complete, and guess what its super cute!
