Rice paper is the most convenient to use, especially for beginners. It is more reliable than napkins, it lays well on the surface and leaves almost no folds.

Earlier, I was upset that I could not create a festive bottle with an image I liked. It turns out that blending pictures are easy to do. For this photo I download from the Internet and print it on a color laser printer.

Images printed on an inkjet printer when interacting with a wet environment, blurred and do not give a quality result.

Then the paper will need to be thinned with scotch tape. Make it elementary. The adhesive tape is pasted on the back side of the sheet and removed. Thus, I get a thin and almost transparent leaf, which I later use to blend the bottle.

1 step. Prepared

On a clean and degreased glass surface should be applied with a brush or foam rubber primer. As a primer, I use white acrylic paint, diluted with PVA glue, in a 2: 1 ratio. Apply the first layer and let it dry.

For the depth of color, apply the second and third layers. The number of layers depends on the quality of the primer.. Dry the product with a hair dryer or dry it in a natural way. Thus, a perfectly white blank is obtained, which asks to decorate it.

2 step. Choose an image

Here it is important to understand how the chosen picture or motive will fall on the bottle. Most likely you will need their preliminary "fitting." Drawing can be cut with scissors. I like the manual pull option more. Not smooth, torn edges of the application look more natural.

3 step. Glue the picture

Separate the napkin into layers, take the upper work. Apply the PVA glue to the blank and attach a prepared piece of napkin to it. Then gently smooth it with a roller or brush. Remember that when wetted with glue, the napkin becomes fragile and may tear from awkward movement.. Glue can be applied on top of the application. Both options are used by me in practice.

A piece of paper napkin with the image should lie as smooth as possible, not have folds and bubbles.

Then we continue to glue on the bottle, fragment by fragment, in order to finally get a conceived idea and dry the product.

4 step. Finishing touches

A piece of foam rubber, tangential movements, walk paint on zaduzupazhirovannoy bottle. Thus, you can hide and smooth transitions of paper images to create the impression of the integrity of the picture. I like drawing elements of the image in gold or making them more vivid colors.

5 step. Adding highlight

New Year's masterpiece is almost ready. Apply a few chaotic smears of PVA glue on it and roll the bottle in the salt scattered on a sheet of paper - it will turn out snow. Instead of salt, you can take colored beads - you get a scattering of fireworks. As an option, I use materials for nail design. Then everything should be dried again.

6 step. We varnish

After the main work is completed and the bottle finally becomes dry it needs to be varnished. I cover in 2-3 layers. The varnish protects the product from moisture and mechanical damage. Each layer should be completely dry before applying the previous one.
