Cloches are often used in home decor. While they are very beautiful, they can also be very pricey. Here is a great diy version that I found on pinterest. Unfortunately the original post has been deleted, but I put together a short tutorial for you to make your own.
Materials
Instructions
Materials
- Empty soda bottle
- Mini floating bubbles
- Round, wooden plaque
- Sharp knife
- Craft glue
- Paint or stain (optional)
- Items to place inside your cloche
Instructions
- Paint or stain your wooden plaque (optional)
- Cut off the bottom of the bottle and the threads from the top.
- Glue a floating bubble to the top of your bottle
- Arrange items on your wooden plaque and place the bottle over the top.
Notes/Ideas:
- I love the look of the floating bubbles but I could only find them for sale in large batches. Unless you plan on making a lot of cloches, they may not be worth the price. Another option would be painted wooden beads or a small Styrofoam ball.
- To make the edges of the bottle smooth after you cut it, place a pan on the oven on low heat. Rub the bottle around on the pan for a few seconds to slightly melt and smooth out the plastic.
- If you have any trees in your yard that need trimmed, save a few wood slices and use in place of the wooden plaque.
