2. Using a craft knife or glass cutter, carefully cut the bottles to create different shapes that will represent various regions of Sri Lanka.
3. Arrange the cut bottles on a wooden board or canvas to form the shape of Sri Lanka, ensuring that the colors and shapes represent the different areas.
4. Once satisfied with the arrangement, use a hot glue gun to secure the bottles in place.
5. Paint the base board or canvas with a background color that complements the bottles.
6. Use acrylic paints to add details such as major cities, rivers, and landmarks on the map.
