Learn how to make a mini glass bottle necklace in this easy craft tutorial. We added sharks teeth inside; you could do other treasures!
Jewelry making is a great craft hobby, and the huge sections of supplies at the craft stores are proof of how popular it is.
Today, we are taking a bit of an unconventional approach - we are going to use a tiny glass bottle with a cork stopper to make a one-of-a-kind keepsake necklace.
You can customize your mini glass bottle necklace with anything from tiny treasures from your latest vacation to a lock of your baby's hair or a written message from someone special. The options are endless!
Here's how to make your very own glass bottle jewelry!
How to Make a Mini Glass Bottle Necklace
Step 1. Gather Supplies
Supplies Needed:
- Mini Glass Bottle with Cork Stopper
- Screw-in Metal Eye Hook
- Sharks Teeth or other treasures to fit inside
- Necklace Chain and Clasp
Step 2. Remove the cork from the top of the mini glass bottle.
Insert shark teeth or any other treasures that are small enough to fit inside.
You can add dried flower petals, tiny agates, even a lock of hair, or a tiny piece of rolled paper with a message written on it. (Message in a bottle!)
Step 3. Insert the cork back into the top of the glass bottle.
To help secure the cork, you can put a little glue (try super glue or E6000 glue) around the base of the cork to help it adhere to the glass.
Pro Tip: You can use these tips to get super glue off your hands.
Step 4. Screw one eye hook into the center of the top of the cork.
Step 5. Add a necklace chain through the loop on top of the glass bottle.
Your mini glass bottle necklace is finished!
