The Stylish Dollar Tree DIY For Wine Lovers That Frees Up Cabinet Space

Your cabinet space is precious, and it can be helpful to offload items for more storage. If you don't have a place for your wine and like to keep multiple bottles at once, there's a chic and budget-friendly DIY solution hiding right at Dollar Tree. By stacking and gluing acrylic wine holders and framing them on each side with painted bamboo cutting boards, you can create a custom display that looks more expensive than it is while freeing up cabinet space.

The Storage Essentials Acrylic Wine Bottle Holders store a single bottle horizontally so it won't roll, and they can be easily stacked vertically into a more streamlined system. They are compact enough to store and help organize the pantry, sit on a countertop, or take up a designated area on the floor. This keeps bottles stored properly while creating a stylish display that frees up cabinet space.

There are many ways to DIY a stylish wine rack. For this particular DIY, you'll need to get eight of these wine holders and then three of the Cooking Concepts Bamboo Cutting Boards. You'll also need some chalk paint or stain, a sealer, and a strong adhesive such as heavy-duty craft glue or Gorilla Glue to keep everything stable. Peel the labels from the wine holders, then wipe them with a damp cloth or rinse and dry them before starting.

How to build a Dollar Tree DIY wine display

Apply glue to the contact points where each holder will stack — typically along the corners and back edges. Stack four holders on top of one another, pressing firmly so they align evenly. Repeat this process to create a second identical column, then allow both stacks to dry completely. Next, use your paint or stain on the three cutting boards. You can lightly brush it on to let the wood show through, or personalize it with any color you'd like. Once dry, seal the boards with wax or a clear finish for protection. When both the cutting boards and the glue on the wine holders are dry, it's time to assemble them.

Lay one cutting board flat on a towel to protect the surface. Position one stack of wine holders vertically along the center of the board, making sure it is straight and level. Apply glue to the contact points and press it firmly into place. Next, attach a second cutting board to the opposite side of the stack, creating a frame around the holders. Repeat this process with the second stack of wine holders on the other side of the center board, securing it in place with the third cutting board. Finally, let the rack cure completely overnight before adding your bottles.

You could create a custom "table" by adding another cutting board to the top, which can hold coasters or wine glasses. If you have some wine holders left over, there are many clever ways you can use them to organize other areas of your home.
