Preparing the bottles: Clean your bottles thoroughly to ensure the surface is dry and free of dust and grease. A perfectly clean surface is crucial for a perfect end result.

Applying the frost effect: Take the frost effect paint straight from the tube and apply it to the glass. Use a stippling brush to spread the paint evenly. The stippling brush is ideal as it enables a stippling technique that creates the characteristic frost look. Once the paint is applied, the bottle takes on a semi-transparent, icy appearance. Allow the paint to dry completely before continuing.

Designing with stencils and markers: Once the frost paint has dried, place a stencil of your choice around the bottle. Fix it carefully with masking tape to make sure it doesn't slip. You can now trace your desired motif using porcelain crayons and a Posca marker . Alternatively, you can also apply the stencil first, trace the motifs and then dab parts with the frost paint.

Baking the paint: To make the paint last longer, you can bake the bottles in the oven. Place the bottles in a cold oven and heat it to 160°C. Once the oven has reached this temperature, leave the bottles to bake for 30 minutes. Then switch off the oven, leave the bottles to cool and enjoy a hand-washable design. If you want to remove the color later, simply skip the baking process.

Care and finishing: To ensure the longevity of your stencil , clean it with water and a little washing-up liquid after use. This will preserve it for further creative projects.

Creative decoration: As a finishing touch, place a VBS Micro LED chain of light bottle cork on the painted bottle or fill it with fresh or dried flowers to create an atmospheric ambience.
