Hey there! We are already at day 9 in our 12 Days of Christmas Series and I have a really fun and easy DIY Christmas Gift to share with you today!
We love a good wine bottle holder and we have created a few hanging versions in the past! I thought this Table Top Wine Holder was in order 😉
I created this one with scraps but if you don’t have scraps, it will still be super inexpensive to make your own!
Here’s how I did it!
I started with a 1×12 that I cut at 11 1/4″ and marked a diagonal line from one corner to another.
Then, I used my 18V Jigsaw to cut along the line creating two triangle pieces.
Next, I cut two 1×4 boards at 19 1/2″ and cut one end of one of the boards at a 45°.
Here are the three pieces you need for the holder.
Now, drill three 1 1/4″ pocket holes on one of the 90° sides and then on the diagonal side.
You can see where I drilled the pocket holes in the picture above.
Next, I used a 1 3/8″ Forstner Bit
and drilled three holes in the mitered 1×4 board. I started on the end with the miter cut and drilled a hole at 4 1/2″, 10 1/2″ and 16 1/2″.
Before I assembled it, I applied one coat of Rust-Oleum Dark Walnut stain on all of the pieces. I just wiped it on with a clean cloth, waited 5 minutes then blended the stain with a new clean cloth.
Now to assembled! I attached the triangle piece to the other 1×4 (the one without the holes) with 1 1/4″ pocket hole screws. I placed it 3.5″ from the end.
Next, I attached the remaining 1×4, the same way.
The back of the triangle piece should be flush with one side of the 1×4’s.
Finally, I roughed it up a bit with my Corner Cat Sander with an 80-grit pad!
That’s it! Just add your favorite bottles of wine and it makes a great table topper 🙂
This one’s for me but I may have to throw one together for a gift exchange! Want to make one for yourself? Do you have someone in mind that would LOVE it?
