Let’s take an empty wine bottle, some torn up old denim pants and create this beautiful altered planter!
Let’s start with this an empty wine bottle clean thoroughly.
Apply a coat of clear gesso to create a solid base to attach the material to.
While this is drying, tear up your denim into strips.
We will use Helmar Fabric Glue to attach our torn denim strips to the bottle starting from the bottom working our way up to the top overlapping each ring a little bit.
Allow the glued layers to dry then take the bottle outside and spray with Crystal Kote Matte Varnish.
Next, I add some embellishments using the Fabric glue and some rubber bands to keep them in place while they dry.
Add a recycled zipper made into a flower!
And...some bead trim off an old scarf edge!
Now that is a beautiful bottle waiting for a pretty plant!
Keep creating!
