Before the New Year there is not much time left,so it's time to start preparing gifts and decorations for this fun holiday. One of the best gifts made with their own hands, can be a beautiful bottle, decorated in a Christmas theme using the decoupage technique. Such a bottle can also become an ornament for a festive table. How it works New Year's decoupage of bottles, tells the Land of Soviets.
Most often, the New Year is the decoupagebottles of champagne, because it is this drink that is accepted to meet the chimes in the New Year's Eve. But this does not mean that only bottles of champagne can be decorated. On the contrary, it is possible and even necessary to decorate any other bottles that are at hand, for example, glass bottles from various sauces, wine, vodka, cognac, vinegar, olive oil, etc. The more interesting and original the shape of the bottle, the more beautiful the final result .
New Year's decoupage of bottles in principle does not differ from ordinary decoupage. Only in the New Year's decoupage, of course, are used necessarily any New Year or Winter motifs: images of Christmas trees and Christmas treesdecorations, Santa Claus and Snow Maiden, snowmen. If the bottle is decorated with an "American" style, then it is possible to put on it images of Santa Claus and his deer, Christmas socks over the fireplace, etc.
For the New Year's decoupage bottles are usedglitters and glitters, shiny beads, white cotton wool for imitation of snow - all this additional decor helps to make bottles more elegant and festive. A basis for the New Year's decoupage are special napkins, consisting of one colored and two simple white layers: the color layer separates from the white and sticks to the bottle. If you do not have napkins for decoupage, then you can resort to one a little trick.
The necessary image for the New Year's Decoupageprint on a sheet of plain office paper using the printer. Then, on the back of the sheet, you need to paste and tear strips of office scotch tape several times - this will make the paper thinner due to the fact that on the scotch there will be paper fibers left on the scotch. Operation with tape should be repeated as many times as necessary to get a thin, but not yet torn layer of paper. After this, you can do the same with the image you got, just like with a decoupage napkin.
How to fulfill the New Year's decoupage of bottles? The algorithm is pretty simple. First you need to primed the previously cleaned and degreased surface of the bottle with glue, then cover, if necessary, with a background color. The prepared surface is glued to the details of the images in the intended order, then the bottle is decorated with sequins, volumetric contour or gel, ribbons, beads or beads. The bottle coating is finished with a layer of varnish.
To diversify the New Year decoupage bottles, you can make it not ordinary, but the reverse: with this method of decoupage, the drawing will look like inside the bottle, which looks very interesting. For this decoupage, the prepared image should be glued on the bottle face down, and on top of it the bottle should be covered with paint. On the opposite side of the bottle is to leave a free unpainted "window" - so that the picture can be seen. The edges of the "window" can be decorated with a voluminous decor.
