Wine bottles are ridiculously versatile. From growing herbs in them to turning them into hanging candles or even “wine-o-lanterns“, wine bottles lend themselves quite nicely to all kinds of arts and crafts projects.
Next in our long list of wine bottle upcycling ideas is to turn them into a faux-snow-covered winter display. This creation could serve equally well as a dining table center piece or just to adorn your mantle or random end table that needs some decor TLC.
The full step-by-step instructions for this project can be found at Cleverly Inspired, but here’s what you’ll need to transform some empty post-Christmas party wine bottles into a winter wonderland:
- Any number of wine bottles
- Primer
- Epsom salt (this is the “snow”)
- Craft bond spray
And yeah, that’s pretty much it. What you place in and around the wine bottles is up to you and can vary based on how you plan to use the display. Take a look at Cleverly Inspired’s setup to get the creative juices flowing.
How would you further spec out these winter wine bottles?
