Valerie on Sep 21, 2015I would see if I could find a stryofoam container in the right size. I think this would be your easiest (and cheapest) option. I would explore at your local recycle depot.Helpful Reply

M. Glass on Sep 21, 2015How about lining it with foam board, caulking the seams (as mentioned above), and since you'd like it to be beautiful...cover it with cork sheeting, with a border of wine corks sliced lengthwise. You'd have to investigate the most effective glue to use.Helpful Reply

Dee on Sep 21, 2015Go to a glass shop and see if they have any sheets of styrofoam. Cut to size, and insert. I would recommend lining a removeable insert though, possibly made from metal sheeting . . . reused duct work?Helpful Reply

Kathy Rick-Altschuler on Sep 21, 2015very easy to buy insulated lunch bags at the dollar store and they should hold two bottles each. velcro them together. or use bungie cords. some lunch bags can hold dry things others can hold ice. works well. have fun.Helpful Reply

Deb Titus on Sep 21, 2015You could likely get rigid styrofoam insulation for a reasonable price at your local builders store. It's usually used to insulate the outside of basement walls, so it will be sturdy but easy to cut to size. You could leave it unfinished, or use paint or plastic fabric to 'pretty-fy' it.Helpful Reply
