How to Bronze Baby Bottles

Keep those treasured memories forever by bronzing them yourself.

Any mother could agree that babies grow up too fast. Keep treasured memories, such as baby bottles, from this special time forever by bronzing them. Bronzing these treasured items at home can save money and time while still allowing you to create the same lasting memory.

Things You'll Need

• Clean cloth
• Alcohol
• String
• Bronzing powder
• Varnish
• Clean paint brush

Instructions

1. Clean the baby bottle with alcohol. You can use a clean cloth dampened with alcohol to clean both the inside and outside of the bottle as well as the nipple. Allow the bottle to dry.

2. Poke two holes in the bottom of the baby bottle and loop a string through the holes.

3. Mix the bronzing powder and varnish together. Mix until the consistency is the same as a cake mix. You should mix enough bronzing powder and varnish to cover the entire baby bottle.

4. Use a small, clean paint brush to brush the bronzer onto the bottle. Coat the bottle several times, allowing bronzing mixture to dry in between layers. The end result you are looking for is a shiny, even finish. Hang the bottle up by the string to dry between each layer.
