Reusing wine bottles does not only save money. There are actually many creative uses of wine bottles. In my case, I'll be using these wine bottles for drinking water the way I see them in Italian restaurants.
You think reusing wine bottles is that easy? Not. It all starts with removing the label. I first used the soap-and-water soak technique. The last 2 weeks were futile because the adhesive is still intact on the bottle.
I tried my luck using cooking oil-scrub technique, and yes it works better.
What you need: Wine bottle, sponge, oil, water and dish washing liquid.
Step 1: Peel off the label
Step 2: If you're having difficulty peeling off the label,
ask you kid (kids) to help you (wink, wink!)
Step 3: Using sponge, scrub oil all over the remaining adhesive
Step 4: Soap the bottle
Step 5: Rinse with water
From wine bottles to water bottles. They're now happily sitting inside the ref |

ReplyDeleteHi Jes! It's nice reusing bottles, hirap lang talaga alisin ng adhesive. Now, with oil, I find it easier. Cheers!
