7 Craft Ideas Using Waste Wine Bottles and Other Glass Bottles

All of us have so many empty bottles lying around at home- wine bottles and other glass bottles that carry vinegar, tomato sauce, etc.

Have you have ever thought how you can create wonderful objects of art from these bottles you consider useless and get accolades for the same?

I think most of us would love to do something like that in our free time but lack the creative streak.

I have no qualms in accepting that though I love DIY projects and doing little things to adorn my home, I am extremely low on creativity. But that does not dampen my spirit and I pick up ideas from here and there and keep on trying some new and wonderful ideas by my more supremely gifted friends and acquaintances.

Here are some wonderful best out of waste crafts you can create from the bottles you once thought useless:

DIY Wine Bottle Lamps

This is one of my favorites from old wine  or other glass bottles. Because not only does it look great in any corner but is also extremely easy to put together.

If you have a power drill, get a glass drill bit. If you are not a DIY enthusiast and don’t think you’d need that drill very often, just think of someone who might be having one and ask him to help you by drilling a small (half an inch radius) hole near the base of the bottle.

With that done, just throw in a strand of lights which you can easily get from any electrical equipment store. These lights are not very expensive either which adds to the fun. Invert the bottle to make sure that some of them can reach as close to the neck of the bottle as is possible- that will make your bottle look better.

And then plug it to a power source. Easy and enchanting. Wasn’t it?

Keep a few of them together in a corner for an even better effect:

Cut the base of the glass bottles off and get a small wooden base to which you can fix an electric bulb holder. You might need a little help here again if you cannot manage to cut the glass bottle yourself.

Chose lamp shades in any color or pattern you want. Fix the bottle on the wooden base using hot glue. And there you go!!
