I had a couple of these glass jars left after sorting out storage space in the pantry cupboard.
Couldn't, didn't want to, get rid of them so I decided to paint them and use them for storage on my counter tops. They can hold 2kgs.

This is what the glass bottle lookeds like. I cleaned them with sugar soap first and left to dry properly. I then used chalk paint to cover the background . I used acrylics for the paintings and then sealed with an acrylic sealer.
They add so much colour to my counters. Will definety make more as I get new bottles.
Enjoyed the project?

Did you need to attend art classes to achieve such beautiful pictures? Or, it just comes naturally? About how long for each one? Just lovely ❤️
