Bottle decoration on February 23

With the approach of February 23, girls and women begin to look for interesting and unusual ideas for a gift to their defender of the Fatherland. It's no secret that a bottle of a good alcoholic drink will delight any man. And if it is also creatively decorated, then it may well not only be useful for use, but also become an original addition to the interior of the room.

A handmade gift not only carries positive energy, but also testifies to the tenderness of the relationship, the woman's concern for the hero of the occasion. Therefore, the handmade technique is at the peak of its popularity. Today there are a huge number of ideas for decorating drinks bottles on February 23rd. This is due not only to the variety of decorative materials, but also to the desire of women to pleasantly surprise a man.

Among the original ideas for decorating bottles, the ones listed below deserve special attention.

• Decoupage bottles. This method can be used to decorate all types of alcohol. However, you should pay attention to the shape and relief of the bottle - decoupage decoration is best done on a smooth and even surface.
• Corrugated paper. Despite the budget of this method, jewelry made from such material is very effective and original. Ease of use allows you to thematically design any bottle: it can be "dressed" in a tailcoat, military uniform or other stylized outfit.
• Satin ribbons. One of the most affordable and popular ways to decorate a gift bottle of alcohol.Ribbon decorations can be removable and fixed.
• The decoration of alcohol with the most unusual materials is gaining popularity: pasta dyed in different colors, twine, napkins, etc.
• A combination of alcohol and sweets in one composition is considered a classic.

Decorating a bottle of elite alcohol with satin ribbons is a great gift idea for a man. With a little effort, a classic present can be turned into an exclusive and extravagant gift. For work you will need:

• a bottle of champagne (wine, vodka, whiskey);
• glue "Crystal" or "Moment";
• satin ribbon in white and black;
• scissors;
• decorative bow;
• decorative materials (half beads, rhinestones, etc.).

The process of decorating a bottle in the shape of a gentleman is not particularly difficult and requires only perseverance and patience, but the result obtained will pleasantly delight and surprise your man.

1. First, you need to clean the bottle from the stickers. To do this, immerse it in warm water for a while.
2. The gluing of the tape starts from the middle of the neck. We measure out a piece of white tape, which will correspond to the circumference of the neck, point glue on it and glue it obliquely from top to bottom. In this case, the ends should go one after the other.
3. In a similar way, we glue the neck to the end. It is important that the ribbons overlap one another.
4. To decorate the bottom of the bottle, measure out a black tape of the required length. It is necessary to stick it on the bottle in the same way as the white one - with an overlap, trying to make the central joint as less noticeable as possible. If necessary, you can glue a decorative tape over it.
5. The final stage - we glue the gentleman's "butterfly" from a decorative bow and buttons from half beads.

I would like to pay special attention to the process of decorating a bottle of alcohol using decoupage technique. With its help, you can beautifully decorate a glass container in whole or in part (if you do not want to hide an elite brand of a drink).

To design a gift for February 23 you will need:

• a bottle of alcoholic drink;
• three-layer paper napkin with a thematic image;
• acrylic primer and paints;
• special varnish for decoupage;
• brushes, sponge;
• glue;
• file.

Let's describe the stages of the workflow.

1. We clean the surface of the bottle from the labels. The remaining glue must then be carefully removed with alcohol.
2. The surface on which the drawing will be applied is degreased with an alcohol-based product. After that, you should not touch the glass surface - this will allow you to apply the primer and paint in an even layer.
3. Using a sponge, cover the surface with acrylic primer.
4. After it is completely dry, apply glue evenly to the entire surface. For decoupage, special glue or PVA glue is used, diluted in equal parts with water.
5. From the napkin, remove the topmost layer on which the image is located, and gently tear off unnecessary edges with your fingers (or cut off with scissors). After that, place the drawing face down on the file. Spray the surface of the image with a spray gun.
6. We carefully apply the file together with the drawing to the bottle treated with glue and slowly smooth the surface of the image with a brush. After that, we carefully separate the file.
7. After complete drying of the work, the surface is varnished. It is advisable to apply several layers of it - this will prevent possible damage to the picture.

Here are some interesting options that our defenders will surely enjoy.

• Cake bottle. Despite the fact that it is customary to give sweets to women, any man will be delighted with such a gift. The main thing is to take care of a high-quality alcoholic drink, which is located in the center of the "cake".

• Military uniform. Excellent decoration of a bottle in the form of a uniform will especially appeal to men related to military service. The effect can be enhanced by the number of stars on the "shoulder straps".

• Case. The bottle, packed in a case with a star-shaped applique, will conquer any man. It will be a plus if you supplement the present with a set of glasses. The cover can be used for other purposes in the future.

• Sweet pomegranate. Decorating a bottle for the holiday with sweets is a double present. Most men have a sweet tooth, so they will definitely like such a non-standard gift.

• Gentleman's set. Such a playful gift will suit a married man. He will definitely make him laugh and delight.
