DIY Flowers & Vines Polymer Clay Wine Bottle

I am finally done with my latest project. This bottle is for my sister Faith. I think, adding a name on this bottle makes it more special and personal. It's an inexpensive beautiful gift. 

It will be a lovely piece to place on her wall shelf. 

This project took awhile to make since I used 1.5 Liter of empty wine bottle and covered the entire bottle with textured polymer clay. I am glad on how it turned out.

It's a fun way to upcycle empty wine bottle.  

Flowers & Vines

Materials I used for this project:

1.5L clean empty wine bottle

Polymer Clays ( Premo Black, Bronze, Beige & Spanish Olive)

Basic polymer clay tools & pasta machine

Textured clay (Helen Breil) (cobalt stone by makins)

Pearl ex pigments (micropearl, silver, pink gold, red russet, gold, bronze)

Basic Tools & Texture pads

I combined bronze and beige clay to cover the entire bottle.

Black clay for neck accent and the name plate

Spanish Olive for the vines 

Red & White to create pinkish colour clay for the flowers.

These are the colours of pearl ex I used for the flowers 

(micro pearl, pink gold, red russet & gold)

I used cobalt stone texture sheet from makins to create this look. 

I cut them into different sizes then layered them on the bottle.

I added small tacks from the (spanish olive clay) all the edges to

create an effect.

Then brush it with purple, bronze and silver pearl ex pigments.

I run the vines all over and added leaves and flowers. 

I combined white clay and very little red clay to create pinkish flower.

Then I brushed it with gold, red russet, micro pearl & pink gold pearl ex to create highlights.

I used bronze pear ex for the vines. 

I used black clay for the name plate and the accent I placed around the bottle neck and run it with Helen Breil's rubber textured pad to create texture.

I added the name using the spanish olive clay.

I finished it by brushing red russet, gold, silver pearl ex to create effects. 

The bottle was cured for 30 minutes at 275C.

Let it cool and Finished with PYM II
