Do you have empty wine bottles hanging around? I do. And as soon as we get back from our little trip up to Napa, I am sure I’ll have a few more.

I thought I’d share some great ideas for upcycling and re-purposing those empties…. DIY Wine Bottle Crafts.
First of all, did you know there are amazing tools for cutting bottles?
The girls from Craft Test Dummies spied this at the CHA craft industry show. You will have to check out the things it can do, as well as the quick video of how it works. I want!
How about making some recycled bottle sun-catchers?
Condo Blues has the tutorial for the sun-catchers, as well as other ways to cut bottles.
Tracie from Cleverly Inspired made some gorgeous white, frosty bottles for Christmas.
I did some etched glass water carafes.
I might not have a green thumb, but I guarantee you I’d be able to grown this Bottle Tree. How funky and fun is this?
Jamie from C.R.A.F.T. shared the bottle tree that is in her parents’ backyard, as well as some amazing photos from a local garden.
Want more? Here’s a great post for 20 ideas to Reuse Wine Bottles. Amazing!
And I have to tell you that if you’re looking for even more wine bottle inspiration, Saved By Love Creations is the place to go:

August 18, 2015 at 7:15 AMI have been wanting to do something with bottles ,my biggest problem is to have a clean cut. I have tried many methods but they are not practical. I love your work and your ideas, very creative and you have found a good use for an item which is causing a problem for the environment and also it is a way to get new craft and grafters. If you have a tip regarding cutting bottles I will appreciate it. you seem to have a very good cutter .wher can i buy one
