So my husband and cousin have been playing mechanic religiously for the past 2 and a half months and with that comes LOTS of beer. I have an applesauce jar full of bottle caps right now and if I felt like taking a metal detector to my front yard I would be able to triple that stash. So there will be more projects to come featuring those bottle caps... but for now, you'll just have to make due with the bottle and some spare napkins from lunch :)
What You'll Need
Bottle
Napkins
Mod Podge
Paint Brush
Step one is to tear your napkins. You want to tear all the access paper from around the logo like shown above. The reason for this is so you can create a solid foundation with the plain pieces without sacrificing the graphics.
Take Mod Podge and brush it on the bottle. Take one of the plain strips from the napkin and place it on the glue. With the brush (without reapplying glue to the brush), brush over the napkin until it has smoothed against the surface of the bottle.
If there are edges that are not sticking add a bit of glue to the brush and go over the edges. Keep going until the entire bottle is covered.
Take a look at your bottle and reapply another layer of napkin over the dark spots. You want it to be consistently covered.
This is how it should look once it's completely covered. Now for the fun part... the graphics.
Take the graphic pieces and apply them where you see fit using the same technique as before.
When you're done it should look something like this. I'm kinda disappointed in the top looking like such a mess. But over all I think it looks pretty awesome!
