How to make altered steampunk bottle: How to: Weekly contest by @tonie

You will need the following materials:

• Empty bottle
• Embellishments (metal, plastic or wood)
• Acrylic paint (gold, black, and silver)
• Paintbrush big and small
• Newspaper
• Glue gun
• Glue stick

Let's begin and follow the simple instructions:

Step 1.)

• Clean your bottle with soap and water then let it dry. Apply black acrylic paint all over the bottle. To dry it faster, use a hairdryer.
  

Step 2.)

• Once the paint is dried, take your glue gun and start to decorate your small pieces embellishments like plastic or metal and etc. Be careful in using a glue gun. In decorating, feel free to stick the pieces close to each other. Lay the bottle on the surface for the best position in decorating.
  

Step 3.)

• After decorating, apply silver acrylic paint and use a small paint brush for a better result. I'm using a soft brush. Then let it dry for the moment.
  

Step 4.)

• So, this is the result of the painting.
  
  Now let's add another black acrylic paint all over. Let it dry then add a gold acrylic paint for the last coat. You can paint it gently using brush, a tissue or your finger for the embellishments. But I prefer to use a paintbrush. Then I used paper towel to tap the paint gently while it's still wet. It depends how you do it, but I chose to cover all over with gold acrylic paint. Some other option once it will dry, you can use a sandpaper for the vintage or rustic effect or altered.
