DIY tea light holder / votive - Recycling old water bottle

Hey,
Today I was cleaning my dining room and found a lot of empty water bottle there. We usually drink bottled drinking water. I usually dispose of lots of drinking bottle in the garbage. Seeing this bottle an idea came to mind. A tea light holder/votive. I used two bottles to make a holder. I applied gold metallic acrylic paint using a cheap makeup sponge on the bottle and let it dry.Once it is dried I painted borders using black acrylic paint. Then pasted flat beads on the border and finally made some polka dots also
This is an easy and humble work

Materials used are
Bottles
Metallic acrylic paint
Crystal flat beads
Tacky glue

Please watch the video demonstration
