Vintage decoupage

Vintage decoration - is the design of the object in such a way that it seemed "old." When using this technique, the bottle is decorated with special pictures, cute "antique" photos, etc.

To perform the decor in this technique will need:

• decoupage napkins with any images;
• acrylic primer paint;
• foam sponge;
• glass packaging itself;
• alcohol or nail polish remover;
• textured contour;
• PVA glue.

How to do:

• the surface of the bottle is necessarily degreased to keep the paint well;
• then, using a sponge, apply a primer when it dries - a layer of white paint;
• the napkin is preferably so wide that it can be completely wrapped around the bottle;
• The top edge of the napkin neatly breaks off, it should turn out slightly not even - it will come out more beautifully;
• after that, it is necessary to separate the layer of the napkin, on which there is a drawing, to glue it onto glassware - the drawing is pressed against the paint that has not yet dried out, and PVA glue is applied on top with a brush;
• when everything is dry, the contours of the design are painted with a sponge, the construction is varnished and - done!

Combined bottle design

An even more interesting option is to design using a combination of tights and napkins for decoupage. In this case, the picture from the napkin is “transferred” to a partially primed, painted bottle, while the rest is put on a stocking. The image from the napkin as it "peeps" out of the window. You can use several pictures - it is especially convenient to do this on large, flat bottles. Then all the places where you plan to place the images are primed, tights are glued around - to decorate large bottles, you need two or three or more stockings. The design is covered with paints, varnishes. During their application, the main thing is not to paint with paint the picture itself.

Extra Decor

As an additional decor, they use anything they like - home-made flowers, roses, beads, cereals, rhinestones, coins and much more. For example, a piggy bank is made using tights, a short iron zipper, and any coins. You will also need glue - PVA and "Titan", scissors. It is better to take the biggest tights - so many folds will come out, they will be more interesting. One stocking is cut off, soaked with PVA glue, put on the bottle, dried. With the help of "Titan", unzipped zipper is carefully glued into the folds. The design is covered with several layers of different paint from cans, after which coins are glued into the zipper slit. If, instead of coins at the same place, you glue pebbles, beads, shiny rhinestones previously painted with bright nail polishes, you will get a piggy bank with "precious stones". Rosettes can be stitched, glued to a bottle, previously wrapped with nylon, in any order - their arrangement looks spiraling nicely, especially on “thick” containers.
