Because of the way my kitchen is set up in my new home, I am unable to put any cabinets directly above the sink. I may still choose to put shelves up there, but I also found this chic and cheap alternative. I love the vino. Who doesn't? And since we already found a way to use the leftover corks, why not make the bottles into an awesome piece of wall art?
So invite over a friend or two and down a few bottles. To make one vase, you will need:
- a clean empty wine bottle
- 1" split ring hanger
- two screws and drywall hooks to fit the top plate connector
- two pieces of 3/8" threaded rod, cut to 2.5"
- double stick foam mounting tape in case the bottle neck is smaller than 1"
- silk flowers
1. Put the top plate connector against the wall where you want the neck of the bottle to be and mark where the screws will go. Drill holes and insert drywall hooks as needed. Attach the plate to the wall with the screws.
2. Screw in the cut rod pieces and the split ring hanger.
3. Apply the foam mounting tape to the neck of the bottle where the split ring will hold it. Position the bottle in the split ring and tighten the screws to secure it.
4. Pop in some silk flowers and enjoy! The best part is, you can switch the flowers whenever you want to make a new statement.
Enjoy this simple and beautiful statement for a kitchen or dining room. Pretty cool if you ask me.
