Now when you catch someone glancing judgementally at your collection of empty wine bottles, you can assure them they are for arts and crafts purposes.

1. Pretty vase
Use glass paint and glitter or some chalkboard paint to create really cute vases that are practically free!

2. Candle holders
How lovely would these look next to a fireplace or as a centrepiece?

3. Get your message across
Just get some chalkboard paint and chalk and use your wine bottles to spell out an inspiring word to place on your mantle.

4. Hanging lanterns
These would be perfect at outdoor parties such as baby showers or weddings. So rustic and charming.
