Resin Bottle Charm

The little bottles are all the rage; you can fill them with glitter, notes, almost anything! I thought about a spin on them and actually decorate the outside of the bottle. But instead of using a glass bottle I thought I would cast a bottle and decorate the outside. All it takes is Amazing Mold Putty and Resin, bottle, ephemera and a dream... or an idea. :)
I love the story Wuthering Heights so I thought I'd make a tribute to the book.



I scanned some book pages from Wuthering Heights on my laser printer. A laser printer is a must if you plan on using paint, mod podge, resin, lacquer or really anything on top of the print out. Ink jet bleeds but laser does not! I bought a laser printer JUST for crafting! I love it!






Directions:

Cast a mold of the glass bottle.

Next pour the resin.

Take the resin cast and begin to glue ephemera to outside.
I used book pages.

I then used some brown ink to stain and distress the book pages once it was glued to the bottle.

I then wrapped wire around the top of the bottle and loop for a necklace.

String a chain and you are ready for the town.
