Working with paint can be a lot of fun and can inspire a lot of cool and creative DIY projects, like these bottle vases from craftsbyamanda for example.

25 Simple Wine Bottle Decor Ideas

Clear glass bottles as candle holders

This is a project meant for the outdoor areas and also one of those that seem much more difficult and complicated than they actually are. Turning wine bottles into tiki torches is actually simple. All you need is some pretty bottles, a few pebbles to use as decorations (optional), tiki fuel, tiki refill wicks and a brass coupling fitting. All the necessary details can be found on armchairsommelier.

Glass bottle lanterns using string lights

A cool idea is to turn a clear glass wine bottle into a candle holder. The reason why the bottle needs to be clear is that you’ll be putting leaf branches or if you prefer it flowers inside and then you’ll be filling the bottle with water. The candle will fit on top so make sure it’s not too thin or too thick. It has to be just right so it fits securely without falling through. Check out this project on elsarblog.
Although you can simply remove the label off a wine bottle, clean it and call it a vase, if you want it to also look more stylish we suggest using a bit of paint. These paint dipped wine bottle vases look really nice and they’re surprisingly easy to make. You only need a few simple things to make this work: empty glass bottles, painter’s tape, plastic bags and spray paint.

Paint-dipped bottle vases

You can also make something special using a set of empty wine bottles. First, you clean them and remove the labels and then you start wrapping string around their bottom sections, applying dabs of glue as you go. Separately you put together a wooden frame with holes at the top for the bottlenecks to fit through. You’ll end up with a wine bottle centerpiece that looks extra charming.

Yarn-wrapped vase centerpiece

There’s another way to turn a wine bottle into a candle holder and in this case you need spray paint. You can paint the outside of the bottle in any color you want and either make it matte or glossy. You’ll have to remove the label and thoroughly clean off any remaining glue first to make sure you get a smooth surface without imperfections. You can find more details on elabellaworld.
