Video Tutorial: How to Make Faux Porcelain Milk Bottles + Pom Poms

A guest post by Jenn of Monkey & Squirrel.

I have been head over heals for the porcelain milk bottles (like these) that I’ve been spotting on numerous design blogs and such. As much as I would absolutely love to own a gazillion of them, I simply can’t find room in my ever so limited budget to splurge on a tiny bit of decor. Here’s the good news though… I’ve come up with a “fake it till you make it” solution!

All you need is… 1. milk bottles (or any glass bottle really) 2. spray primer (I love kilz and nothing else!)

And for the pom pom flowers… 1. pom poms 2. glue (almost any will do here) 3. twigs (free in your backyard… or perhaps your neighbors) and VOILA!!!

Here’s the how-to video along with a cute little song…

*You just want to make sure to do light coats of the primer to get that textured ceramic look and no drippies. Hope you enjoyed this as much as I enjoyed doing it!
