1 glass bottle
Thread
Masking tape
1 large container
Water
Lots of ice
1 syringe
Industrial alcohol
1 lighter
Water sandpaper
Procedure
First, we wash the bottle very well and proceed to mark it with Masking tape. We do it exactly where we want to cut, a suggestion is that it is below the bottle’s nozzle and as uniform as possible.
Then, we wrap the bottle with thread below where we have marked it, always very straight. We can wrap it several times if the glass is thick, we must do it slowly and with the necessary time.
Next, we put water and a lot of ice in a container. We set aside.
Next step, we proceed to wet the bottle thread with industrial alcohol and we do it with a syringe.
Then we remove the tape and very carefully we light the thread on fire, once it goes out we immerse the bottle in the ice water that we have reserved. Immediately you will hear a click, which is precisely the sound of the bottle being cut.
To finish, we remove the thread and we can now polish the edges of the glass in the water with the sandpaper. It is the safe way to avoid possible cuts and any other type of accidents.
We now have our homemade, original and very decorative glasses ready!
We recommend: Christmas candle holders with glass jars
Recommendations:
Let’s remember that if we are going to use these glass bottles for glasses, we can make them with bottles of the same color. But you can also use bottles of different colors, it is up to our personal choice, and they will also be unique and original designs.
If we have a tool at our disposal to make the cut, we must make sure that it works correctly. Otherwise, we can ruin the glass designs.
Finally, if we love the details and decoration of our home, learning how to cut glasses evenly and precisely is essential. In addition to being inexpensive, our glasses will have a very personalized touch.
