INSPIRATION glass bottles, jars & candles



hi dear readers,
as you may know, the idea of recycling and splitting "garbage" is quite widespread in Germany. You have a lot of options by separating biological waste from packages, plastic and even glass…
But what happens when the bottles or glasses you have already used and cleaned still can be useful for the household and decoration?
Here are some ideas of what you could do with empty wine or juice bottles and even glass jars!



In winter time fake flowers could be a decoration option in glass bottles or maybe even dry flowers from a nice summer day you want to remember... 

A nice lavender bunch makes your room smell nice and it is very decorative inside a glass jar.

There once were candles on these bottles... But try and use the idea of using old crêpe paper to make clear bottles look colourful!

Spotted by Christin in an Irish Pub! Great idea!

Again: Candles in bottles. Spotted in a bar in København.


Philippa used a black candle, very extravagant!


  A lamp made out of a wine bottle! Spotted in København


Another type of candles: gel candles! It is very fun to make and you have so many free options to decorate them using  different shells!




Which one do you like the best and which one could earn a place in your home? Have you tried out anything similar?

yours,
