I have a lot of left over wine bottles that I've been collecting. What are some cool projects to do with them?

I wrapped twine around some and used them for flowers. I glued a decorative to the front. Turned out cute.
Can make border for yard, humming bird feeders, decorative candle holders. Also, make shelves with wine bottle holding them.
I have seen them used as lamps, as planters for succulents, and for drip style candles for romantic meals. I hope this gives you some ideas. If you used them as vases, you could cut off the tops, sand the cut part a bit and have pretty single bud vases. Basically, any type of container could be substituted for a wine bottle. If it were me, I would sell them in a yard sale as the above mentioned items. Hope this helps Sophy!
We use a pretty one that has flowers on it as a Candle holder. We use it every night for dinner. The candle drips down the sides give it a certain panache.
Make holes around a small green Styrofoam wreath and put the open end of the wine bottle into the wreath. Secure with fine craft wire and decorate for any occasion. Makes a great door wreath but be sure it is securely mounted. Also, you can decorate hem and give them as gifts for holding bracelets. Good luck, el
