Whether you’re making a special bottle of wine, or just looking for something new to drink, you can easily find some great ways to reuse your old wine bottles. Here are a few suggestions on how to cut them up, recycle them, and repurpose them.
- Remove lumps and bumps from the bottle
Using a hammer to remove lumps and bumps from wine bottles may not be your preferred pastime, but it can be an effective method of ensuring that your bottles look their best. You can even use a rotary tool, like a black silicone polisher, to give your glass a shiny new finish. The smallest bottle may be a challenge, but you can usually pop a larger one with a simple hammer and nail.
The first step is to get a good handle on the size of the bottle you plan to work on. If you are a novice, it is best to buy a bottle in the first place. It is also a good idea to take a photo of the bottle as you will need to reference it later. It is also a good idea to pick a bottle with a smooth bottom as it is less likely to break.
You will want to find the best bottle to perform the task. You can do this by using a combination of online resources and advice from your local liquor store or liquor broker. This is important as you don’t want to purchase a bottle that is going to break on you when you are trying to remove lumps and bumps.
You can remove the small lumps and bumps from wine bottles with a simple hammer and nail. You can also use a rotary tool to perform the task, but be careful with your abrasives. A better method is to use a jig made from two pieces of wood. This is a lot easier to work with than a single piece of metal. This jig is a two-in-one solution, allowing you to turn the bottle with one hand while scoring with the other. You can rotate it under a cold tap to facilitate the process. It is a good idea to use a masking tape to keep the process tidy.

Depending on the type of bottle, you may be able to reuse them for something else in the future. If you’re feeling creative, you could even turn them into a charcuterie board.
The best way to go about doing this is to buy the bottles from a friend, but if you’re handy with a knife and some duct tape, you’ll be off to a great start. The glass isn’t as hard as you’d think and you’ll be rewarded with a unique and useful item for a fraction of the cost of a commercially purchased bottle. You can find cheap bottle cutters on eBay or Amazon.
