Wine Bottle Crafts

Earthsense

Whether you’re in the mood for decorating or just looking for a crafty hobby, using items you already have or finding items that might otherwise be trash is the best way to get your creative juices flowing and help Mother Earth. Wine bottles are fairly easy to come by, and you may have a few lying around waiting to be recycled.

They can be used as hanging lights with a little modification.  Or filled with a fuel based light or candle and used to light your outdoor living space.  Use the bottoms of the bottle to create a stained glass pattern, or use them to create a mobile, or any number of artistic projects.  Collect a lot of bottles and you can line your flower beds with beautiful glass, or arrange them vertically on poles to create a patio bottle wall.  Use the bottles as hurricane lamps or fashion a bird feeder from that old wine bottle.
