DIY Holiday Decor: A Boozy-Cute Centerpiece

December 14, 2016

Confession time! Sometimes I shop for wine based on the label. I have my favorites, of course, but when I’m picking out something new, I definitely let my aesthetic inclinations get the better of me.

That’s how I’ve discovered some of my favorite rosés!

Anyway, because of this little wine-shopping quirk that would cause my wine-connoisseur friends to experience mild seizures of frustration, I usually have some pretty cute empty bottles perched on my windowsill.

I’ll drop in a single flower or just let the light catch them until I cycle them out for the next round (hellooo, Minibar).

Earlier this month when I was cleaning out my apartment, I decided to put some of my prettiest bottles to use. I’d been wanting to make a luminous holiday centerpiece using LED lights forever… and this seemed like the perfect chance.

I’m kind of in love with the results. Want one for your apartment? A step by step video is below, clocking in at a whopping 36 seconds! Click through and check it out.

No patience to watch a 36 second video? The steps are below:

1. Drink some wine!

2. Drink some more wine! (Until you have enough empty bottles for your display.)

3. Drink some beer! (If you want to mix it up like I did with some pretty smaller bottles.)

4. Get some copper wire LED lights! I got mine on Amazon.

5. Drop the lights into the bottles and feed them in until you’ve achieved the lighting effect you want.
