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.
