alcohol bottle decoration ideas
Once you’ve downed all of the “good stuff” out of your glass liquor bottles, don’t just pitch ’em in the trash or recycling bin. There are endless ways that you can repurpose an old alcohol bottle and turn it into a crafty DIY decoration.
You could use these crafts for Christmas gift ideas, birthdays or even accentuate your current home decor. The best part is you just need the empty Jack Daniels or vodka bottle that you already have. (Don’t be cheap with the plastic bottles — glass jugs or bottles will look way better). They look just like the traditional Boston round bottles that people pay money for in craft stores.
You may have made some good memories while emptying this bottle (well, maybe not the tequila bottles), but now you can repurpose your old liquor bottle as a keepsake for those memories. Once the bottle is empty, you can insert photos — along with beads, pearls, shells, sand or any other trinkets you can squeeze in — through the bottleneck. This bottle frame is great for displaying wedding photos, too. Upcycling for the win!
Even after you emptied all the alcohol out of it, your bottle can still be the life of the party after re-purposing it into a stylish top for your tiki torches. Double these torches up around your backyard and impress your friends and family.
As it turns out, liquor bottles aren’t only good for dispensing alcohol; you can upcycle them into soap dispensers, too. This is a simple DIY decoration, and all it requires is an empty bottle and a dispenser top. Fill it up with your liquid soap of choice. Pro tip: any standard dispenser top will screw onto a 200-milliliter glass bottle of Jack. Just toss the old screw cap it came with.
Chalkboard paint and wine bottle crafts are all the rage on the crafting scene right now. You can make your own mini chalkboard wine bottle with just a few simple materials. Take your empty bottle and paint it with colored acrylic paint. Then, paint a rectangle in the center of the bottle using black chalkboard paint. Once the paint dries, wrap some twine around the neck of the bottle for some added flair. It would even be a fun experiment to see how cute this would be with mini liquor bottles.
Once you empty the alcohol out of your bottle, get ready to put some more back in after you transform it into a DIY shot glass. Using a glass cutter, cut off the bottom of your bottle, and then voila! You have a shot glass made out of a liquor or beer bottle.
