From HGTV.com to My House

by Kayla Kitts December 29, 2012 4 Comments

I’m one of those people with hundreds of DIY projects on my to-do list. You know, turn a cutting board into a side table, washi-tape my sofa legs, construct a hanging outdoor bar and ombre a dresser. Some of those are pretty big projects, and I live in an apartment without a proper place to paint, so I decided to start small this week with a project from our very own HGTV.com.

As the co-editor for HGTV.com’s Holiday House package, I’ve been swooning over the wine bottle candelabra project since it came in. I started storing my empty wine bottles, and once I had enough, I got to work with my spray paint.

Wine bottle candelabras light up the entryway at HGTV.com’s Holiday House.

As you can see, the wine bottle candelabras were constructed as dramatic entryway lighting at this year’s Holiday House. (That’s a lot of vino!) Since I don’t have an entryway, I took a different approach. See how my wine bottle candelabras turned out after the jump.

If you’ve been following this column, you know your Happy Hour can contribute to happy hours crafting away with things like beer bottle caps. (Not to worry if soft drinks are more your speed or you’re not of legal drinking age — you can do a lot with soda bottles, too.) Oenophile DIY-fans have even more reason to say cheers. Wine corks have proved to be very versatile for projects, so my mission today was to find equally cute crafts you can make from empty wine bottles. Whether you prefer red, white, sparkling or rosé, these Pinterest gems will have you covered.
