This video was well over 20 hours in the making, and it takes some brutal editing to reduce to a visual demo that is still explanatory in less than 20 minutes! Hopefully I have done so, and I won’t leave you frustrated because I failed to explain sufficiently. A big thank you to you all for watching my videos!
Today’s tutorial, DIY Painted Bottle-Decorate an empty bottle with Mandala Art by Be Creative, gives you a step by step view of painting mandala art on a bottle. The results are stunning and I’m sure many of you will want to try this.

How to paint dot mandalas with Kristin Uhrig- #21 Candy Spiral
” I have been on a journey to learn a new painting technique to relieve the stress brought on through a medical crisis with my husband’s cancer. . A camping trip resulted in a fine collection of smooth flat, round stones. They were the inspiration for learning to create dot mandala designs on rocks, and then late on canvas panels. I began making tutorials to share this adventure with others, so they could learn from my mistakes as well as my successes. My hopes that others will be encouraged to try something new, and creat beautiful lasting pieces of art that will bring them joy.”
