 You'll need:

• empty wine bottle
• drill
• safety glasses and gloves (just in case the bottle breaks)
• 1/2″ glass drill bit
• masking tape
• short strand of Christmas lights (with a plug only on one end)

Steps

1. Rinse out your wine bottle and remove the labels (if desired).

2. Place a piece of masking tape on the bottle where you want to drill the hole for the cord. The tape keeps the drill bit from slipping.

3. Put on your gloves and goggles and start drilling. Don’t apply too much pressure or you could break the glass. The drilling takes a long time. depending on the power of the drill, can take around 30 minutes. Be patient!

4. Once your hole is drilled rinse the glass shavings out of your bottle, and let the bottle dry.

5. Carefully feed the strand of Christmas lights into the hole you drilled.
