Every once in a while I have the urge to renovate things up a bit around the house, and one of my bathrooms walls was asking for a fresher and modern look, so I remember that I've seen some gold and pastels prints on pinterest and these were the idea for my new piece of art.
Instead of looking for perfumes bottles clipart, I made a Polyvore set using my favorites perfumes, I arrange them as I wanted them to look, and then I took a screen shot of the set and paste it on word, made it bigger there and print it.
I cut the outline of the perfumes with a knife and arrange the stencil on a piece of white paper then I trace them with a pencil, and then I painted the inside of perfumes with gold acrylic paint (you may need to use several coats to achieve a perfect gold color).
I don't have pictures of the painting process, that's because they got erased by error from my camera, I'm really sorry about it, but it's really easy, and in case you need help I'm always here :D
I was going to leave the background white but I preferred to use a nude color (the same color of my walls), so I just painted all the background with a brush.
That's it, it was really easy and fun, and I love the fact that it has some of my favorites perfumes as well as the husband's.
