Do It Yourself - Wine Bottle Light

So, now that you have all the information that you need to get started drilling glass, what kind of projects should you take on? If you haven't heard of Pinterest, it is a virtual pinboard that allows Dyou to search for many different types of do-it-yourself projects. We had to receive an invitation to join, so feel free to reach out to us if you need an invite. It begins to get fun when your friends join you, as you can share your pinboard of ideas with your friends on the website.


One project that we found worthy of showcasing, is the DIY Wine Bottle Light:


 


This idea, which was found on Pinterest, is a project created by Wit & Whistle that shows you how to complete this simple, yet interesting piece. The only things you need to create this are:
  • An empty wine bottle
  • A strand of Christmas lights
  • A drill
  • One of our 1/2" glass drill bits
  • Masking tape
  • Goggles and gloves, just as a safety precaution
This is a great project for beginners, without the look of being too simple. Check out the project steps by clicking here. And don't forget to take pictures of your finished product and share them with us on our Facebook page. Don't be shy!
