Turn Beer Bottles Into Furniture

Step 2Decision Time/Build the Base

Decision Time/Build the Base
Now comes the time that you have to decide what you want your table to look like. Now would be an opportune time to rinse out and soak your bottles in the aforementioned sink to remove the labels if you so wish to go down that path. Keeping the labels on does look cool, but if you want to make your table light up (oh yes, more on this later), the labels can get in the way.

Start out by laying out the bottles designated for the base to how you would like them to be arranged in the end. Begin the construction by applying a generous amount of adhesive to one bottle and press it against a second bottle so that the bottoms are nice and flat. Continue assembling the base into whatever shape you desire, but keep in mind that after the first two bottles are together, you will have to continually check that your joints are where they should be. You don't want to finish a row of bottles to find that your straight line has become an 'S.' Allow the base ample time to dry before moving onto the next step.
