So far, Woodooz has always been about our works. We thought it is about time that we also use this platform to showcase arts and crafts by others, particularly those that do not have a blog to write about their work. In the recent days, we have been reaching out to talented friends and family and the first in this series of Woodooz Showcase is a DIY bottle art by my sister Subbu Padmanabhan.
Preethi and I have always been fascinated by
wine bottle art, and so when we laid our eyes on these bottles during our last visit to Bangalore,
we wanted to know how it was done.

So here it is, in her own words :
"I wanted to keep it simple and so went for a minimalist design. The green wraps that you see in the bottom is handmade paper, bordered with glitters. I stuck the paper on to the bottle using cellotape."

"For the top, I again chose a simple design, and had it drawn lightly using a pencil. I filled up the line drawing with Fevicryl 3D glitters. I then completed the design by gluing sequins around the top of the bottle"

"I left most of the surface area of the bottle blank, because the green backdrop was by itself enhancing the look. And now this pair of bottles lay right where everyone can see them - In the living room."
So how did you like it ? Sometimes
overcrowding can be an overkill, and we thought it is the simplicity of the design that makes it stand out.
Leave your comments and let the artist know what you think of her work.
