I’m all about craft projects, especially those that utilize items I already have in my house. That’s why I love thisĀ painted wine bottle project found via Lifehacker, originally from instructables. What’s great is that the final product can be used as either an oil bottle or a container for dish soap. I might just have to make two!
Supplies:
- Empty wine bottle
- Bleach
- Rubbing alcohol
- Enamel paint
- Paintbrushes in various sizes
- Bottle spout
Will this craft project simplify my life? Probably not, but it’s a great way to re-use empty bottles I have lying around the apartment. Plus, crafting is a great way to spend the weekend!
