Reuse Wine Bottles As A Unique Way To Organize Jewelry

If you own more than a couple of pieces of jewelry, you already know the struggle of tangled necklaces, lost earrings, or a pile of bangles you can never quite sift through. Sure, jewelry boxes exist, but the nice ones are often expensive, and sometimes you just want to be able to see what jewelry you have without having to open and dig through a container. That's where a little creativity comes in. Instead of buying something new, you could reuse wine bottles as a unique way to organize jewelry right at home.

Not only does this keep your favorite pieces within reach, but it's also a sustainable option that gives new life to something you might otherwise toss into the recycling bin. All you really need are a few clean, empty wine bottles or other glass bottles (bonus points if they have an interesting shape or color that adds character to your space). Depending on how you style them, they can look chic on a dresser, nightstand, or even in your bathroom. Think of it as functional storage that doubles as decor, a great perk when you're trying to declutter and organize jewelry to free up useful space. The best part is you likely have everything you need to do this DIY.

To begin, start by removing the wine bottle label with a little warm, soapy water. Once clean, the bottle is ready to use as an organizer. Slip bangles and bracelets over the neck, and you'll instantly have a tidy way to keep them from tangling or disappearing. For necklaces, loop them multiple times to help prevent them from falling off, offering an upcycled solution that's arguably more stylish than organizing your jewelry with a DIY egg carton organizer.

To customize this wine bottle hack, you can paint the wine bottle to match your room's color palette, wrap twine or ribbon around the neck for a rustic touch, or leave it clear for a minimalist look. If you collect bottles of different sizes and shapes, group them together for a layered display. Beyond jewelry, this trick works well for holding accessories like hair ties, scrunchies, and watches. To take this a step further, you could also glue a large bead with a dowel rod through it to the mouth of the wine bottle, making two arms branching in opposite directions that create a sort of jewelry tree for hanging even more items. No matter how you arrange them, reusing wine bottles to organize jewelry not only saves you money but also adds a touch of personality and charm to your room. And if you still have a bunch of leftover containers, broaden your horizons by exploring unique ways to repurpose wine bottles in your garden.
