1. Your man understands alcoholic drinks and treats their purchase like buying an expensive car.
2. You never give him present traditional bottle of perfume and shaving foam. By the way, if you still like the option with a bottle, then you’ve probably already prepared a stylish decoupage napkin, glue and acrylic paint for this glass container.
3. Your imagination as a decoupage artist is clearly above average.
The texture we will be working on is an empty bottle of Black Buch Irich Whiskey and a packaging box. By the way, as an option, you can buy his favorite alcoholic drink in the store. In this case, you will not need to think about how to fill the bottle.
You will need:
- acrylic primer
- autumn leaves of different colors and sizes
- decoupage napkins in “animal” style
- glue for decoupage
- acrylic paint (gold, bronze, burnt umber, yellow, emerald, titanium white)
- matte acrylic varnish
- one-component craquelure varnish
- sponge, brushes
To begin, cover the bottle and box with the lid with acrylic primer. Please note that we do not prime the bottle completely. We leave “windows” on the sides.
Place torn pieces of napkin on the still wet soil. Iron them with your fingers. You can immediately tint the edges with the same white primer or acrylic titanium white. For better fixation, use decoupage glue.
Now let the napkins and soil dry and start decorating the products with autumn leaves. Glue pieces of multi-colored leaves onto the bottle. It is important that the leaves and the surface under them are thoroughly coated with glue. Decorate unprimed windows with bright yellow and red leaves.
It's time to grab a brush and paints. As your heart desires, apply strokes along the contours of the leaves and the edges of the napkins. Dilute the autumn color scheme with emerald paint. Any other color that is unnatural for this time of year is also suitable, for example, azure, lilac, purple. In combination with natural motifs, these colors will add contrast to the picture. In addition, any needlewoman always wants to add her own twist to the traditional style.
Using a sponge, cover the neck and bottom of the bottle with gold. Apply precious paint to some areas of the packaging box. Paint the cork bronze. And later, do not forget to cover the products with acrylic varnish. One-component craquelure varnish will add shine to the gift. Now think about what precious drink you will fill this work of decoupage art with. Undoubtedly, it will be something exclusive and definitely his favorite.
