An elegant bottle rack provides aesthetic storage for wine and other drinks while also keeping your kitchen or living room tidier. The possible designs are numerous – for the table, mounted on the wall, under the table or built into the kitchen cupboard. The choice of materials is just as large, with wooden bottle racks being the easiest to build. If you would like to build a bottle rack yourself and organize your wine bottles, then you have found it here. We present ideas for small and large drinks and wine racks, as well as a few helpful instructions.
Small shelves for the kitchen are perfect for those who like to enjoy a glass of wine with dinner or invite friends over for dinner from time to time. For wine collectors who own several wine bottles, larger wine racks that are installed in the cellar, for example, are more suitable. Below you will find instructions for six bottles, which you can also build yourself.
First you should get all the necessary materials and tools. First you need two sheets of plywood (for example made of birch wood) about 26x38 centimeters in size. You also need two hinges and about 30 centimeters of cord of any color. The tools you need are a ruler, pen, screwdriver, drill with hole saw and 150 grit sandpaper.
You should first measure the locations for the holes and mark their centers. Then drill six circles into each plywood panel with the hole saw. Once the total of 12 circles have been drilled, their edges should be sanded with sandpaper. If you want to paint the bottle rack, this should be done after sanding.
The next step is to assemble the two sheets of plywood. This is done using the hinges, which can be easily installed using a screwdriver. For more stability you should install two hinges.
The last step is tying with string. The cord ensures that the bottle rack cannot be opened further than desired. To tie the two sheets of plywood together, you will want to drill small holes in the bottom corners of the wine rack and thread the string through them. Tie a knot at the outer end of the string and the homemade bottle rack for six bottles is ready.

Since the bottle rack also serves as an aesthetic decorative element, you can choose a creative design. With pipes, copper spray paint and white leather, for example, you can make a stylish bottle stand yourself and store wine or PET bottles in style.
With darker leather and wood you can also build a small shelf yourself that fits perfectly in the living room or dining room.
