Yes, Fevicryl colours work on plastics. Plastic needs a base coat and then the paint of our choice. We can cut the bottles and make pen holders or jewellery boxes or even a piggy bank.

Thanks Ekta. I'm more inclined towards using them for water purpose only. Don't intend to spend on another set. Will try colours. Any other ideas? Will sticking ribbons, yarn work?

You can use acrylic paint on wine bottles but for the above finishing try to use acrylic in spray form.

HI. You may use Acrylic Colours to Paint the bottles but they are not scratch proof. Also the colours will not give the same finish as seen in the image. You may Sponge dab the color get soft texture and give two coats of colour to make it look even. Apply a layer of Clear varnish to protect the colour.
