Here is how you make it:

4. Citronella Champagne Bottle Candles
Wanting to remove insects in your home garden? Create citronella candles! Citronella is a natural oil that comes from grass. It has the power to get rid of insects.
To make this project, you need these materials:
- Torch fluid
- 2 bags of marbles
- 1/2 inch teflon tape
- 1/2 inch by 3/8 inch copper coupling
- 1/2 torch wick
- Champagne bottle
- Funnel
- Citronella oil
Follow these steps:
- Pour the marbles carefully in the bottle.
- Wrap the coupling with a teflon tape, enough to fit the bottle’s mouth. Doing this will keep the coupling in place.
- Insert the torch wick into the coupling and leave about 1/2 inch to stick out. This is where you will light the candle later.
- Use the funnel to pour the torch liquid into the mouth of the bottle.
- Remove the funnel and add 3-5 drops of citronella oil.
- Insert the wick into the bottle and press the part where the teflon tape is. This is to secure that the coupling properly fits into the mouth of the bottle.
- Light the candle for use.
5. Wind Chimes
Your home garden does not need to be always silent. Add some tiny sounds to it with these wind chimes! As the wind blows, these chimes will create that soft tinkling noise. To make these champagne bottle wind chimes, secure the following:
- Champagne bottles
- Chains
- Key split rings
- Ornaments
To make this project, follow these steps:
- Cut the bottle about 3/4 of the size from the top.
- Polish the edge where you cut it with sandpaper. This makes sure the edge is smooth.
- Measure the chain based on the size of the hanging chimes you want. Cut it using a wire cutter.
- Attach the split key ring at the chain’s bottom. This will fit the neck of the bottle from the inside to hold the bottle when hung.
- Insert the other end of the chain through the bottle’s neck.
- Attach another split key ring to the top of the chain.
- Attach another chain at the bottom split key ring and attach the third split key ring.
- Secure an ornament of your choice to the third split key ring.
- Hang the wind chime using the top split key ring.
6. Hanging Champagne Bottle Planters
Looking to add hanging planters to your garden? Use champagne bottles for those! Your hanging planters will look colorful because you will use tinted ones. For this garden decor, you only need the champagne bottles, stainless steel wire, and hooks.
- Start by cutting the bottle about 3/4 of its size from the top.
- Polish the edge to smoothen its surface.
- Attach the hook on the wall of your garden.
- Turn the bottle upside down and tie it to the hook using the wire.
- Place the plant in the tied bottle.
7. Inspirational Champagne Decors
Inspire people in your home garden, whether it is a family or friend! Champagne bottles can do the job for this easily and beautifully. All you need is to style the bottles in any way you want.
You can paint them in different colors and then write a short quote on the bottle using paint. You can also cut a lace and stick it to the bottom of the bottle. Then, write a three-word quote or shorter around the neck of the bottle.
A simple as “Live your dreams,” “Never give up,” or “Have faith” is already inspirational. Place the bottle in an area where people can easily see it. The garden table’s center is a great example!
