To make these fun bottles you will need to following materials : Bottles ( I used empty wine bottles and any other type of bottle you can find, any color), some corks ( can be bought at the craft store) , Polymer clay ( which includes clay tools and whatnot), an oven, and creativity.
step 1: clean your bottles, to get packaging off of wine bottles, I use my dishwasher and they come right off. If you still have sticky glue or anything weird on them just break out the scrub brush and soap.
step 2: Get your clay and decide what you want to put on your bottle. I like to make little women faces with long hair and such. To do this you need to sculpt the clay, or you can use pushmolds, which they sell next to the poly clay in hobby lobby or wherever you go to get craft supplies.
step 3: stick it on to the bottle, press firmly to make sure it is secure but do it delicatly to prevent messing up your little creation.
step 4: Bake it in the oven. I bake mine on top off a tile and I remove the baking racks so I can stand up my bottles, or just lay the bottle on the side w/o the design on it ( on the tile).
step 5: let it cool, and then paint them! As you see the moon bottle im still workin on because it is not completly painted.
Have fun! Be creative!
