Wall art
can add character to any room in a house, room, or office. Wall art
can be traditional, such as sculptures, emblems, paintings,
pictures, or mosaics. They can also be contemporary such as an
artful display of lights projected to a wall. There are also other
wall decors that are totally spectacular. For example, in a hotel in
Las Vegas, the wall behind the front counter is virtually an
aquarium with all colorful fishes swimming around.
Some of the best wall arts are
three dimensional. The wall art has depth, length, and width, making
it viewable in all three dimensions. An example of a 3D wall décor
would be real or artificial flowers carefully arranged and hanged on
the wall.
An example of a good contemporary
décor is a good 3D wine arrangement. This is especially nice if the
homeowner is a wine enthusiast. A wall picture or a painting of a
bottle of wine, wine glass, and flower arrangement does not even
come close with a 3D wall décor.
Here is how to make such beautiful
wine wall art décor.
1. First find a nice empty wine
bottle. This is the centerpiece of the décor. Although a clear one
would suffice, a colored bottle usually looks better. Look for a
bottle with a nice, dainty, unique design; it will add more
character to the decoration. It is up to you if you want to remove
the label or not; however, it would give your wine bottle its own
identity if you include the label.
2. Clean the wine bottle thoroughly
with cool water. Do not worry about the label; the adhesive is tough
and doesn't dissolve easily. Dry the bottle completely.
3. Using water that is dyed with a
dark color, fill the bottle halfway. This water represents the wine.
Of course, it is perfectly okay to leave the bottle empty. Place a
cork stopper to seal the water in. Set the bottle aside.
4. The next step is to prepare a
flower arrangement. It is important to note that you should only use
artificial flowers; real flowers wilt after a short time. Artificial
flowers can be readily brought at a home improvement shop.
Arrange the flowers and the plants
in an artful way, spreading out the blooms. The center area, from
the top to the bottom of the arrangement, should be clear; this is
where the side of the bottle is glued. You can have the flowers
arranged yourself, or you can have a professional florist do it for
you.
5. Glue the side of the bottle
carefully to the flower arrangement, making sure it is centered. You
should use epoxy or cynoacrylite; these adhesives are impervious to
heat and water.
6. For this wine wall art décor,
you may want to add other items, such as plastic grapes, artificial
previous stones, and any accessory you can think off. Just be sure
that they are firmly glue through the use of cyanoacrylite glue or
epoxy.
7. Wrap a piece of wire around the
neck of the bottle and form the remaining length to a hanger. Lift
the arrangement on top of a soft surface to see if the wire can hold
the entire arrangement's lift. Wrap the wire with florist tape. Hang
the bottle-and-flower arrangement on the wall.
