Grab a wine bottle & copy these brilliant upcycling ideas

If you love wine as much as we do, you probably have an empty bottle or two lying around the house. Instead of tossing them in the recycling, we’ve got some clever ways to repurpose the bottles into something beautiful.
We all know that wine bottles make a great centerpiece at weddings, but we bet these ideas are going to surprise you! From beautiful statement pieces to ultra-useful creations, we’ve got a DIY wine bottle project for everyone. Bottoms up!
1. Citronella candle
Summertime means afternoons spent lounging on patios and outdoor gatherings, but it also means mosquitoes! Keep those pesky insects away with this simple (and beautiful, might we add!) citronella candle from Hello Glow. You might even want to make a couple!
2. Glitter vase (h/t Decorate With Flowers)
While you may think that a vase is a no-brainer way to transform your old bottles of vino, we bet you haven’t seen a wine vase quite like this one. With a coat of matte white paint and a hint of glitter, these vases make tough competition for the flowers they hold!
3. Cheese platter
Have you ever seen flattened wine bottles being sold at art fairs for a hefty price? Well, it’s easier than you think to flatten a wine bottle on your own. The folks at eHow have broken down the process step-by-step so you can create a fancy new cheese platter for your next gathering. Your guests will be super impressed!
