DIY Glass Bead Wine Bottle



Beautiful isn't it? here we will learn how to make a Glass bead Wine bottle

you can use any Glass Liquor bottle you wish




What you need is.....


Clean wine bottle

Glass beads of your choice of colours ( you can also do sea glass )

Glass Epoxy Glue ( it has to be for GLASS ) you can use hot glue gun but Epoxy glue is best )

LED Lights ( they come in Battery operated variety and electric )

Dremel Drill (use the 1 inch bit or size you need for inserting the wire into the bottle )

Safety Googles

Sandpaper

Tin can





1. use a tin can to hold the wine bottle, it seems to make it much easier.



Place your wine bottle upside down in a tin can

going very slow Drill a small hole in the side of the bottle near the base at the bottom

you only want to make a hole big enough to put the LED Lights wire

using sand paper + a pencil to smooth out any rough edges


( Common sense here don't use your fingers )


( Note if you are doing a battery operated variety then skip the First step )




2. Starting at the bottom and with your hot glue gun. Glue glass bead in rows up the can.




you can do patterns , symbols like spirals or Runes if you wish .

When you are about half way up, you can take the wine bottle out of the can and set it on a flat surface.




3. Continue with the glass beads to the top of the wine bottle, allow to dry
  






4. Place Lights inside the wine bottle and enjoy the you work you created .





This makes a beautiful decoration during an evening BBQ, Summer Parties, Night lights and much more










Remember you can do them in any color bottle and any color glass beads or seaglass

they would make amazing Gifts
