Recycled Glass Bottle Decor

Hi All,

In this instructable, I will share, how to recycle glass bottles and delivery boxes into an awesome decor.

• A glass bottle
• Corrugated cardboard from delivery boxes
• Table mat
• Wooden Skewers
• Jute string
• Granular stones ( 1 to 2 mm )
• Green color paper
• PVA Glue / Fevicol
• Paper cutter

Please note: I used a dremel with 50 mm diamond disc to cut the button of the glass

• The glass bottle has irregular inner surface, measure inner free space
• Mine was a rectangular shaped bottle, so decided to make rectangular base
• This base is of length and breath that will fit inside the glass bottle without any struggle
• I made it, with 22mm height
• Added a base, much larger than the bottle base
• This base will be trimmed in the finishing steps

• Draw a simple house and it's roof on a cardboard
• Using Paper cutter, cut them
• Glue the walls together
• To give texture, I added a layer of table mat on each wall separately
• Glue wooden skewers at the joints and the roof lining
• The roof is made of corrugated cardboard, with one of it's layer peeled to give a good textured look
• Glue the roof and paint it
• Leave everything to dry

• I have used an actual tree branch to make the tree
• One needs to trim the branch that fits inside the bottle, with the house and the base
• Paint the branch with brown acrylic paint
• Cut leaves from green paper
• Gently stick each leaf on the branch to make a small tree

• Paint the base with brown acrylic paint
• Glue the tree and House in place
• Add a small swing on the tree
• Glue some small granular stone as shown
• Wait for glue to dry
• if you want to add any more details, now is the time

• Place the bottle on the base and trim any excess cardboard
• Glue the bottle and the base
• Cover the neck and the base with jute string as shown
• And we are done!!!

Now we have a beautiful piece of art
