Whether you enjoy only the occasional glass of wine or you consider yourself a connoisseur, you’ve probably found yourself with empty wine bottles sitting around your home for a while. You can recycle these, of course, but there are also plenty of DIY projects you can use them for if you’re feeling very creative!
We absolutely adore how these bottles by Real Coake look as though they’re actually frosted with snow because of the painting technique used to cover the glass. Whether you stick something inside or simply set them on an end table, they’ll be gorgeously decorative.

Do you like the idea of paint stencilling a bottle but still think something is missing? Make wine bottle vases that have a little more flair by using glitter with your stencil instead of just regular paint! Get the instructions for this project on Real Coake.
Saved by Love Creations reminds you how pretty ombre can be even though it’s been trending for quite some time now. Fading the bottle from blue to white up towards the next creates a beautifully worn look that’s completely shabby chic.
Would you rather work with glue and scissors rather than paint and glitter? Karen Kavett has you covered with a decoupage tutorial! Try using torn pieces of maps or older ripped book pages to cover every inch of the glass.

You can do more with wine bottles than just make standing side table decor! This tutorial from Home Dzine helps you create a project that’s slightly more high maintenance than a simple vase. We love the idea of covering the class with stone paint so it looks like an earthen ware jug.
RoyMohanShearer shows you in detailed pictures how to create this stacked shelving unit where each level of shelving is held up by wine bottles. Make sure all the bottles are the same height so none of the shelves wiggle!
Saved By Love Creations reminds you that, even if you’re just creative a flower vase, sometimes displaying it alternatively to simply setting it on an end table is a great idea. The bottles will look great left clear and clear the way they are if you create visual interest by hanging them on a mount instead of painting or etching them!
Any project that involves electrical elements or cutting glass is clearly a little more high maintenance than some crafting ideas. If you have the tools necessary, however, then this bright, clustered pendant lamp is definitely worth the effort! See how it’s done on ModPodge Rocks!
