My eyes are always open for finding well-shaped twigs that can be used to hold things. Notice how the twig has a multi-branched shape? I filled the bottle with multi colored pea gravel, topped it with moss and inserted a twig from the garden! Hung on the wall, it adds a modern touch to your entry way or door area. This bottle smelled like licorice so my guess is that it was a bottle for Greek Oozo. A DIY key holder is a perfect home decor craft for beginners and experienced crafters alike With a list of easy to work with materials and simple steps, it comes together quickly and it almost no-fail. You saw my bottle collection, I have plenty at my disposal for crafting. I can't get over the fact that I was actually tempted to go to Bed Bath and Beyond that day to buy jewelry organizers before I thought of upcycling my glass bottles!

It's easy to stack bracelets along the neck and attach watches or other clasped bracelets on the handle. This design takes advantage of the bottle's long neck and handle. I'm not sure what kind of alcohol was in this bottle, but it's filled it with tumbled green glass and functions as a bracelet holder! Ok, so having completed this craft, I was inspired to make more jewelry holders using liquor bottles. I'm very satisfied with this little jewelry ring tree craft because it's a great example of function and whimsy. Sand fills the bottom of the bottle to anchor a nicely-branched twig that provides the structure for the ring tree. My latest liquor bottle reincarnation involves a Patron Tequila bottle saved from the dumpster that now serves as a base for a jewelry ring holder tree! It's a shame that these bottles are often thrown away when so much thought has been given to their gorgeous design. My stash of liquor bottles collect dust and spider webs until they are repurposed in a garden craft project! Start at the back of the bottle cap, under the ridge, and drill all the way through. Garden-inspired crafts are my favorite and I enjoy collecting glass bottles. My mind never turns off so when I'm not designing landscapes or edible gardens, or a project for the Home & Family show, I love to craft. Which reminds me, I've got to scope out kamboucha brands for good looking bottles!Īnyone know of any brands with knock out kamboucha bottles?

Lately, I save my libation calorie allotment for kamboucha, a fermented, probiotic-rich drink. You can't beat the price: free, and no hangover! It's a curated stock of very pretty glass bottles that I use for various garden inspired crafts.Īs a matter of fact, one of my favorite designs was when I took a couple of whiskey bottles and made a miniature rose arbor for a Valentine's container garden! Using a temporary adhesive hook would make it dorm or apartment friendly.

Instead of hanging it on the doorknob, you could hang it on a hook by the front door or in a coat closet. I have a MAJOR liquor bottle collection that I've rounded up from alleys behind bars and pubs. This key holder would be a great idea for a dorm room or roommates sharing a place.
