Christmas season is almost upon us; are your decorations ready yet? Why not recycle some of your holiday ornaments this year, like this DIY Christmas lights project from Saeid Momtahan on Youtube? This is an ideal way to recycle your wine bottles and the perfect addition to your Christmas decorations. Start making it today by following the step-by-step instructions in the video tutorial below.
Materials:
- five old wine bottles
- 9 cm x 55 cm piece of wood
- LED lights
- 2mm mild steel wire
- some chain for hanging
Directions:
Step 1
Prepare your piece of wood by drilling five holes in it for the bottles, 12 cm apart, then drill two extra small holes for the hang. Cut five pieces of your wire, 25 cm long each. Next, run one bottle through the hole and twist one wire around the neck nice and tight. Repeat this process with the rest of the remaining bottles. After this, cut another two pieces of wire with your desired length. Twist the end of the wire, then run it through one of the smaller holes. Repeat this on the other hole, then attach the chain for the hang.

After this, put your LED lights on each wine bottle. Cut a piece of wire and use it to mount the switch box of the LED lights to the wooden board, then secure it with screws. Lastly, hang it and your DIY Christmas lights are now finished.
