Recycle cut bottles and jars into a decorative plant stand

You can create your own Home decor pieces with old bottles, jars and garage sale finds.

This unique sculpture was created by cutting off the top of a pickle jar and a wine bottle. The bottom piece is a chip and dip bowl I found at a garage sale - glued on top of it is a pickle jar with the top cut off - next up a wine bottle and the top piece is a cake stand also found at a garage sale.

This makes an attractive plant stand but you could turn it over and use as a chip and dip holder for a party or place a round glass on top to make an end table.

The sculpture was glued together with 5 minute epoxy and then sprayed with black enamel.

Chartpak Gold falling Leaves rub on transfers were added for the finishing touch.

For this table. I cut off three wine bottles at different heights and glued them together to form the stand. The bottom piece is a glass cake stand turned upside down. I then sprayed the stand with Krylon webbing spray.

For the table top, I Purchased a 24” round glass table top at Target store. Piñata paints were used to paint the table top. A very quick and easy project!

Wine Bottle Table

I love to make accent pieces for home decor out of bottles and jars. Sometimes I cut them off and glue different sizes of bottles together to get the height I want.

This table was made for my grandson who works for a winery. The center bottle is very long so I used it alone and didn’t need to cut it off.

I purchased 2 inexpensive glass cake stands at Target and turned one upside down and glued it to the bottom of the bottle. The second cake stand is glued to the top of the bottle.

Be sure to use 2 part epoxy glue to glue the glass pieces together.

The stand was then painted with “Fleck Stone Faux granite” Spray paint

I purchased a 1/2” X 16” round beveled edge glass table top that sits on top.

The glass top could be left plain. I used “Piñata” paint to create a stain glass appearance.
