How to Make Decorative Bottles for the Kitchen

A selection of decorative bottles.

Decorative bottles for the kitchen can be made out of just about anything. Whatever your style is, there is a decorative bottle that can enhance your decor. Use your imagination when choosing items for your decorative kitchen bottles.

Things You'll Need

• Chopped peppers (green, yellow and red)
• Vegetable oil
• Polished rocks
• Potpourri
• Ribbon
• Corks

Instructions

1. 

   Pack a bottle tightly with pepper slices, dried beans or sliced fruit. Fill with vegetable oil. Top the bottle with a cork, or screw the lid back on. (This type of decorative bottle can also be used in cooking.)

2. Fill canister jars with polished rocks. These are great for rustic kitchens. Use jars that close with a metal clamp.

3. Fill a glass soap dispenser bottle that has a stopper with potpourri. Choose potpourri that enhances the colors in the kitchen.

4. Fill any empty glass jar or bottle with dried pasta. This preserves the pasta and lends your kitchen a decorative touch.
