DIY Glitter Wine Bottles

I like to think of myself as the lazy DIYer, a connoisseur if you will. I see things on the web (Pinterest mainly) and then do it half assed and somehow I get amazing results. This is evident in my sparkly wine bottles.Now used as a bangle holder - but you can use yours for whatever you want! Supplies needed Wine bottles glitter white paint Steps: 1. Soak bottles in hot water- this not only cleans them, but then makes taking off the label super easy. 2. Make sure the label is completely off so you can start on a clear state. 3. Put down something to catch sparkles- I used garbage bags so I could chuck it after. 4. Paint 1/8 of the bottle white - I did it vertical stripes. 5. Dump sparkles on. (Only painting a bit at a time ensures that the paint will be wet and thus more adhesive for sparkles. 6. Repeat. 7. Seal - If you are a dedicated crafter you can use some sort of sealer. I used hairspray. TA DA
