Hi creative friends!
I was inspired to create another illuminated glass bottle in altered art.
Tutorial
1 choose some chipboards I used a border and a flourish element glue a piece of cheesecloth and the chipboards with construction adhesive on the glass bottle
2 create a pillar gate and a little mermaid with airdrying modeling clay and silicone cake moulds,
2a I love to use some leftovers from the chipboards (here the bottom conclusion) borders are used on the sides
3 glued the gate and also added some shells and two pieces of driftwood as entrance steps afterwards the bottle was completely covered with crackle medium ‘Weathered wood’ (DecoArt)
4 after drying covered with a chalky finish paint for glass ‘Relic’ (DecoArt) let it dry for a few hours
5 now two wax cremes ‘Lavish Green’ and ‘Brilliant Turquoise’
6 dry brush technique with white gesso to lighten the dark colour
finally added the little mermaid
some close up’s
chipboards can be bent around the bottle very well after a light moistening with water
here can you see the used leftovers as sea waves on the bottle sides
