Step One:

Use wire cutters to remove the pin, if you can pull it out instead of cutting it off, even better.

 

Step Two:

Use the wire cutters to cut off the smaller end of the push pin. The larger end will become the "bottle neck".

Discard the small piece and sand the top of the "bottle neck" if needed.

 

Step Three:

Mix your clay and roll out a thick snake about the size you want your bottle. I used red and translucent clay for my bottle. Use any color use choose, your "bottle neck" will reflect the color if using clear push pins.

 

Step Four:

Place the "bottle neck" on the clay and press down a little. Roll the clay some more with the "bottle neck" on, to achieve the look you want. For a wine bottle, taper the bottom of the bottle.

Continue this step to achieve your bottle's shape.

 

Step Five:

Make a small cap from clay and place on top pressing gently. You can use a bead for the cap instead of clay, skip this step if using anything other than clay. 

 

Step Six:

Place your bottle in a microwave safe bowl filled with very hot water.

Place bowl in microwave and turn on for about 30 seconds and then carefully check your bottle. It takes about a miniute and a half in my microwave, the time will vary depending on how hot your water is to begin with and your microwave.

You want the water to boil, don't over cook and do not put bottle in the microwave without water, it will scorch.

 

Step Seven:

Carefully remove from water and let cool. Don't worry if your bottle comes apart during cooking.

Use a little tacky glue to hold pieces together.

 

Step Eight:

Add label and coat with clear nail polish.
