ONE HUNDRED REASONS WHY I LOVE YOU

Send

Jar of declarations of love on Valentine's Day. What could be better than hearing declarations of love from a loved one, and even on such a holiday as Valentine's Day. Better than one, there will be only a hundred admissions why you are so dear to the chosen one. Today we will make a bottle of "one hundred reasons why I love you."
In work will be used:
- a glass jar or a small bottle of a beautiful shape;
- PVA glue;
- sponge;
- water based paint;
- universal silicone glue;
- colored paper for printing;
- varnish spray;
- thick threads (burlap).
Getting to work. Using a sponge, we tint the glass surface of the bottle with white paint. When the first coat of paint dries, we paint the bottle again, but now the paint has already been brought to the required shade (you can give the paint the desired tone using special colors for water-based paint or adding a little watercolor to the paint). Remember that when dried, the color of the paint will lighten a little.

While the second coat of paint dries, print out the name for our jar on the sheet. You can take as a basis already proposed or come up with a name on your own.

Carefully cut out the words and use PVA to glue them to the surface of the bottle. We do not use too much glue, otherwise the sheet may get wet, and excess glue will create ugly streaks on the surface. Like paint, glue, you need to let it dry thoroughly.

Now you need to decorate the upper part of the neck so that there are no visible traces for tightening the lid. We take a thick burlap thread, glue its end onto a drop of silicone universal glue and, wetting along the entire length in PVA, wind it around the neck. The tip is also fixed with transparent silicone glue. At the bottom of my bottle there are also traces that give out its original purpose, so they are also hidden under the thread. If you need to hide only traces of a twist, then the lower part can not be decorated with thread. If you use a glass jar with a beautiful lid as the basis, you can skip this stage of decoration. We open the surface of the bottle with varnish-spray to fix the decor. If the surface is not varnished, it will quickly get dirty, and it will be impossible to wash it.

As a closure, for a confession bottle, I will use an ordinary wooden cork, so I simply decorate it with threads, securing them with a knot.

Now let's take a look at the inner contents of our holiday bottle. We print declarations of love on colored paper, many of which can be found on the Internet. But if you want the confessions to be more personal, of course it is better to invent them yourself. The larger the bottle or jar used as a base, the larger the recognition strips must be made. We cut out the strips, twist them and fix with a thread, ribbon or a drop of glue.

We place our confessions inside the bottle, close the lid and the original gift for your loved one on Valentine's Day is ready. You can additionally decorate the bottle with beautiful hearts.
