Recycling is first and foremost a respectful approach to the environment. Today, for World Recycling Day, why not use your creativity and give your LYV bottle a new life after tasting? In France, around 7 billion glass bottles and jars are thrown away every year. That's over a million tonnes of glass. Instead of throwing it away, here are 4 ideas for recycling your wine bottle into a useful and unique object?

To paint your bottle:
For example, you can paint it with a spray can, easily found in any DIY store. Once decorated, it transforms into an original vase. (We recommend magnum for a wow effect), perfect for holding a few fresh or dried flowers. You can also choose metallic or pastel colors to add a touch of color to your interior.
Turn your bottle into a candleholder :
If you're looking for an idea that combines both style and practicality, a long candle can fit perfectly into the neck of the bottle. This creates an elegant candleholder, ideal for creating a warm atmosphere on winter evenings, or for bringing a vintage touch to your table during summer meals. This little detail is perfect for a dinner party with friends or family.
Turn it into a carafe or oil bottle:
For the more pragmatic among us, once the bottle has been thoroughly cleaned, it can be perfectly transformed into a water carafe, ideal for a beautiful festive table or everyday use. You can also use it as an oil bottle, adding an elegant yet functional touch to your kitchen. Your LYV bottle becomes an indispensable, long-lasting accessory.
And what about the cork?
And why limit yourself to the bottle itself? Glass stoppers can also be reused. It's perfect for corking an opened bottle of wine and preventing air from spoiling the wine's taste. It's easy to store in a drawer, making it an eco-responsible little accessory to always have on hand.
