Description :

Decoupage art is a versatile craft that can transform mundane surfaces giving them a new renewed look, altogether. Here is an interesting DIY that has various techniques that you can learn and adapt in numerous projects.

STEP 1 : Source the base material

Vintage bottles being made with corrugated sheets and Fevicryl Mouldit. Enhanced and given an element of being vintage are the decoupage sheets that we have used to lend the apt look.

Take corrugated sheets. 

STEP 2 : Drawing the shapes of bottles

Cut the corrugated sheets into rectangles and draw vintage bottles in different shapes and sizes, like you see in the image.

STEP 3 : Cutting the bottles

Using a paper cutter, cut the bottles along their outlines, in a very neat manner.

STEP 4 : Preparing the dough / clay

Take Fevicryl Mouldit – resin base & hardener, mix well to form an even soft dough

STEP 5 : Clay slab technique

Roll the dough to make a medium thin slab using a rolling pin.

STEP 6 : Shaping the bottles

Take the dough slab and cover the corrugated bottle cut outs, using Fevicryl Fabric Glue. Make sure the edges are even and smooth with a good finish. Let it dry. 

STEP 7 : Painting the bottles

Start painting the bottles using Fevicryl Acrylic Colours - Burnt Sienna 01, Black 02, Dark Brown 05, Dark Green 06, Lemon Yellow 11, Light Green 12, White 27, Cerulean Blue 32, Leaf Green 62, Coral Red 66, add tinges of Fevicryl Acrylic Colours Pearl Metallic - Gold 352 & Fevicryl Metallic - Gold Powder 08, to give an antiquated look. Let it dry.

STEP 8 : Choosing the Decoupage sheets

Choose decoupage sheets with prints that are vintage in theme & shade, like the ones we have chosen.

STEP 9 : Decoupage technique

Cut the decoupage sheets in a random manner, keeping in mind the bottle’s shape & size. Using Fevicryl Modge Podge Gloss very neatly stick the papers on the surface of each of the bottles, ensuring there are no air bubbles and creases. Paint the edges of the bottles such that the theme blends and looks a part of the vintage vibe. Let it dry.

STEP 10 : Final touches

Give a coat of Fevicryl Modge Podge Gloss on the surface, to protect and give a sheen to the final product. Paint a phrases or punch lines using Fevicryl Acrylic Colours in a fancy & attractive typo and font, this will add to the look.

STEP 11 : Final Look

The bottles once dried and ready would look like this.
