Between corks and bottles, there are a million innovative ways to recycle wine stuff. Here are some of my current favorites:The 15,000-cork wall: In NYC, Frankly Wines has made a wall out of corks--15,000 of them, to be exact. And I thought my collection was big.
The Wine Bottle Terrarium: If you've got a green thumb, consider trying Dr. Vino's garden-in-a-bottle. A clear bottle works best.
The Plant Nanny: I actually have these and a. love them because I rarely have to water and b. get comments from envious visitors all the time. If you've seen those globe plant-watering thingamagigies, this is just like that only instead of an expensive globe, you just stick a wine bottle into the Plant Nanny, which slowly releases the water into your plant. My dwarf lemon and lime trees love them.
Wine bottle candle holder: Handy with DIY? Make these easy candle holders by slicing off the bottoms of wine bottles. (Pictured)
Recycled wine glass counters: Redoing your kitchen? Make your next counter extra-special with these counters made from recycled wine bottles. Talk about different--every counter has a unique pattern because it's recycled.
Refillable bottles: Remember the refillable mugs at gas stations? I used to have one that I could refill for $.50 in college (and I did, all the time). An Idaho winery is selling refillable wine bottles with the same concept: take it back in, get a refill for less.
