Wine bottles are one of those things that have a million ways to repurpose and reuse them. I personally love crafting with wine bottles, because even before I actually drank wine, I was fascinated by the beautiful bottles it came in. Now that I love sitting down with a splendid glass of wine (shout out to Wollersheim Winery!), these crafts are even more near and dear to my heart. I have made so many items from wine bottles (see Centerpiece, Toilet Paper Holder).
Here is another way to repurpose a wine bottle, by turning it into a handy earring holder that is just as beautiful as it is functional.
In the past, I have tried mesh earring holders and such that are a real pain. The earrings always get stuck or I don’t put them back because they are hard to get in. And who has the time to take off the back of the earring to put it away just to take it back off to put it on? With this method, you can easily hang your earring (with backs intact). I have been using this for a few years now and haven’t had a problem with the earrings falling off. And I am way more likely to actually put them away with this method. Plus, it doubles as a vase.
Supplies:
- Empty wine bottle (remove label if you choose)
- Scissors
- Hot glue gun and glue
- Juice bottle (you’ll just need the top and bottom sections)
- Filler (stones, tissue paper, shells, etc.)
- Optional decorative items (ribbon)
Very Nice. I love the grumpy cat earnings. I need to get myself a pair of those bad boys.
