You want to put the two wires close to each other so that when you ignite the button you will see a spark

Tape everything in electrical or regular tape so that everything wont fall apart. You will also want to tape the wires to the bottle so it wont get annoying!

You will need hairspray or any other flammable content. For the load you can use a potato or apple anything you want it to shoot! One little spray of hairspay into the bottle will do!
