I was visiting my Grandma and helping her clean up a cabinet when she gave me an old (empty) glass milk Bottle. I thought it would look great with the two artificial glasses of milk that I had out at Christmas this year, but I wanted it to look like the bottle was full of milk as well. After thinking about it for awhile I figured that adding paint would be the easiest way to get the look. Read on to see what an easy project this was, or click here to learn more about the glasses of milk. Empty Bottle Make sure your glass is nice and clean before you add your paint. (Grandma cleaned this one for me so I was already good to go 😊) Add Paint I poured a bit of white acrylic paint into the bottle being careful not to hit the sides of the glass. Roll After adding the paint I slowly rolled the bottle allowing the paint to coat the sides of the glass. This was a bit of a process as you have to have enough paint to coat the area evenly but not so much that you are left with a large puddle in the bottom afterward. I ended up having to add more paint halfway through and it was tricky getting the new paint line to match the previous one once I tipped the bottle back over. I say just take your time and experiment. If you end up making a mistake, no big deal. Soak the bottle and the acrylic paint should clean out easily. Keep that in mind for later though, if someone adds water to this bottle, the paint will deteriorate. All Done I'm pleased with how the bottle turned out. The glasses are filled with some sort of white colored resin while the bottle only contains the light coating of paint, yet it looks as though this was a matched set. Yay! And now on to another lamp project.....😀 ********** I hope you enjoyed this how-to post, thanks for stopping by! -Jennifer © Jennifer Adams Flowers 2017
