Cheers, it's time to decorate!

Written by Jeff, Posted in Helpful Tips

To all my fellow wine enthusiasts in the world, here's a fun theme for your next celebration.

Wine bottles from your favorite Cabernet, Merlot and Pinot Noir; come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Why not use them to create fun, eclectic centerpieces? The varying heights and shapes give volume to your table and the classic green bottle doesn’t vary too much in shade so they work well as a grouping.

Another perk is that the look works with a wide color scheme so you can ask your floral designer to incorporate different colored calla lilies to fit your color scheme. You can also ask them to accent the table with moss, burlap or whatever your heart fancies to complete the look you are going for. Keep in mind that your floral designer will need the bottles in advance to select the perfect grouping for each table.

The best part? It’s a fun way to share your love of all things wine with your guests! So the next time you have a gathering of friends and family over, think twice before tossing those wine bottles. You just might get another use out of them.

Cheers!
