Wild Wednesdays - Wine Container Takeover

Summer is coming to a close and I’m trying to not get too depressed amongst crazy life things (did anyone else get the blues or have the world fall out from under them after turning 30? Asking for a friend).

While navigating a new season have turned out to be way more reactionary and survival mode than I anticipated, there have been some super sweet moments along the way that has kept me sane.

While planning a last minute surprise party for a dear friend, I realized that I didn’t want the typical bottle containers for wine, and don’t even show me a plastic cooler. I wanted texture, Italian vibes, effortless summer….so cue some MacGyvering and that Can-Do attitude that keeps my life afloat most days.

The trick? I wanted to use some baskets that I have, but how do you make it work? The other trick? Keeping leftover materials from past shoots to come in clutch. Using clear plastic, I cut pieces large enough to fill the bottom of the basket and the sides. Cut the piece longer than you need, then add bottles and fill with ice, trim the extra and voila!

Now, go hurry and have some friends over for the last of summer Rosé :)

Cheers!
