INSPIRATION from the glass jar (&bottle)


hi ladies!
here the next post,... Ann-Julika I think you should post yours today and then maybe we could post this one tomorrow or the day after tomorrow? :-)
I wanted to add the idea of using nail polish remover to make old nail polish more liquid and use the leftovers... Should I add that under the caption? Do you think that there are too many pictures or is it ok?
Let me know! See you tomorrow!

P.S. sorry that it took me so long, but I was away for the weekend :-)


hello 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!

yours, 
the creative minds




Use nail polish to embellish old glass bottles.

                                      
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.


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!

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



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

  1. Great :) But I wouldn't include the nail polish thing here, that is just too much I think ;)

  2. oh but one thing: what about the title "INSPIRATION from the glass jar (&bottle)"? 'from' is not correct here I think... or I just don't get what you want to say maybe :D I'd say "INSPIRATION glass jar & bottle" because INSPRIATION and DIY are just category names, right?

  3. All right, I'll leave the nailpolish thing out - sad story haha. Yes, they are category names... There's a song called 'from the glass jar', that's why I wrote it like that... But it's not so known so I'll try and think of another title (if you have a creative idea let me know, otherwise it'll just be the one you wrote down :)!)
