That empty wine bottle on your counter is one coat of adhesive away from becoming the most talked-about piece in your home.
Most craft books treat glass as an afterthought — a brief mention buried in a chapter about wooden boxes. This is different. Every single technique, every troubleshooting tip, and all sixty hands-on projects inside are built from the ground up for curved, non-porous glass surfaces. You will learn exactly how paper behaves on shoulders, tapers, and necks — and how to make it cooperate every time.
Inside, you will discover how to:

  • Transform recycled wine, beer, olive oil, and spirits bottles into stunning decorative pieces using tissue, napkins, wrapping paper, and printed media
  • Master the surface preparation and label removal sequence that prevents peeling, lifting, and adhesion failure before your first project even begins
  • Create seasonal centrepieces for Valentine's Day, Easter, Halloween, Christmas, and every celebration in between — each with a complete materials list and numbered procedure
  • Build coordinated gift sets, wedding table favours, and baby shower arrangements that look professionally crafted
  • Choose the correct sealant for every intended use — from indoor display to kitchen condensation to sheltered outdoor placement — so your finished pieces last
  • Troubleshoot bubbles, lifting edges, colour bleeding, and cracked finishes with targeted repair methods that save your work instead of starting over
  • Achieve gloss, satin, and matte professional finishes using wet sanding, spray varnish, and layered topcoat sequences
Whether you have never picked up a brush or you have a shelf of craft supplies waiting for the right project, these sixty designs take you from a clean, dry bottle to a finished piece you are genuinely proud of — no prior experience required.
