How To Paint a Wine Bottle

So how do I paint the wine bottles? 

From this:

 To this:


Step 1:  Drink WINE.


Step 2: Drink more WINE.

Step 3: Peel of the labels.  They can be tricky.  I spray mine with Lysol Kitchen Spray (magic in a bottle), let it sit, then wipe off.


Step 4: Wash the bottle, inside and out.

Step 5: Use a cotton ball and rubbing alcohol to make sure any residue is gone.

Step 6: Prime with Gesso.


Step 7:  Basecoat with acrylic paint.  I have the best luck with Ceramcoat. It is thicker, and doesn't require several applications.  I usually do 2-3 though.

Step 8: Paint any design you want. If you've had too much wine and are more comfortable with stencils, you could try these:

Step 9:  Paint a couple layers of protective sealer.  I use this:



Step 10:  Skip Steps 1-9 if you would rather just drink more wine...

  3. Undeniably imagine that which you said. Your favorite justification seemed to be on the web
    the easiest factor to bear in mind of. I say to you, I certainly get irked while people think about
    issues that they just do not recognise about.
    You controlled to hit the nail upon the highest as neatly as defined
    out the entire thing without having side effect ,
    people could take a signal. Will probably
    be again to get more. Thank you
