PLAVA BOCA

Čitajući sjajnu knjigu moje prijateljice Ivane Plechinger “Ono što ostaje uvijek ljubav je” poželjela sam i sama (uz Ivaninu pomoć)  napraviti plavu bocu u kojoj će voda, milovana suncem, biti puna energije. Još ako joj dodamo zahvalne i poticajne riječi – svakodnevno konzumiranje vode pretvorit ćemo u nešto zaista divno.

Da biste priču o  plavoj boci, solarnoj vodi i zahvalnosti čuli onako kako sam je i ja čula, pogledajte Ivanin video “Kakve veze ima voda sa zahvalnošću? HVALA što pitate!” (https://youtu.be/yi0YxJfSOLY).

A onda – ako poželite izraditi vlastitu bocu, evo našeg prijedloga. Hvala što ste s nama.

Potrebno vam je:

staklena boca

plava transparentna boja za staklo

konture za staklo

pik traka

kist

Bocu možete kupiti prozirnu, ali i već tvornički izrađenu od plavog stakla. U tom slučaju, odmah prijeđite na pisanje lijepih riječi.

Ako je vaša boca prozirna, prvo je treba obojati. Pik traku zalijepite na dnu grla boce (tamo gdje se boca počinje širiti). Zalijepite je ravno i uredno – takav će biti i rub plave boje na boci.

Sad obojajte bocu. Koliko će intenzivna boja biti, odredite sami. Želite li plaviju i tamniju bocu, premažite je nekoliko puta, čekajući svaki put između nanošenja da se boja osuši. Važno je da bocu bojate SAMO izvana!

Kad je podloga suha, kontur-bojom ispisujte lijepe riječi. Izaberite one koje su vama drage, koje vam nešto znače. Hvala, LJubav, Volim te, Radost, Dobrota… samo su neke od njih.

Kad ste zadovoljni kako boca izgleda, ostavite da se potpuno osuši (najbolje preko noći).

Na koncu skinite pik traku, natočite vodu, ostavite je kratko na suncu i – uživajte!

BLUE BOTTLE

As I was reading the fabulous book written by my friend Ivana Plechinger, entitled “Ono što ostaje uvijek ljubav je” (“What remains forever love is”), I suddenly wanted to make a blue bottle in which water, caressed by the sun, would be filled with energy. And with the added words of gratitude and encouragement – the daily consumption of water would be taken in an entirely different light.

To hear the story about a blue bottle, solar water and gratitude the way I heard it, watch Ivana’s video entitled “Kakve veze ima voda sa zahvalnošću? Hvala što pitate!” (What does water have to do with gratitude? THANK you for asking!) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yi0YxJfSOLY)

And then, if you wish to make your own bottle, hope you’ll find my suggestion useful. Thank you for being with us.

What you need:

a glass bottle
blue transparent glass paint
glass contour liner
crepe tape
a brush

You can buy a transparent bottle or one made from blue glass, in which case skip the painting part and start writing kind words.
If your bottle is transparent, you first need to paint it blue. Stick the crepe tape to the bottom of the bottle neck (where the bottle gets wider). Stick it neatly to ensure getting a neat blue rim.
To paint the bottle, you first need to decide how intense you want the blue to be. The darker you want it, the more coats of paint it will take (and waiting for each to dry before applying the next one). What’s important is to paint ONLY THE OUTSIDE of the bottle!
Once the paint is dry, use the contour liner to write words of kindness. Choose words that are special, that mean the most to you – Thank you, Love, I love you, Joy, Kindness… and many others.
When you finish the bottle to your liking, leave it to dry overnight.
Finally, remove the tape, pour in some water, leave it in the sun and – enjoy!
