Hey guys! Today, Jessica from Mom4Real is in the house to show us how to make a quick and easy wine bottle soap dispenser! I hate to admit that I paid a lot of money for one just like this a few years ago. I wish I had the instructions on how to DIY my own soap dispenser back then. Please check out Jessica’s blog and pin any of her images from her site if you’re feeling the pinning twitch coming on with this one! ~Beth
Hi, Unskinny Boppy readers! I am Jessica from Mom 4 Real, and I am so happy to be hanging with you today!
One of my favorite things to do is take something old, and turn it into something new and fun! So, today, I’m going to show you how I turned an old wine bottle into a cute new dish soap decanter.
I like wine, but hate dishes, so I’m trying to trick myself…maybe if there is a wine bottle involved, dish washing will be more fun? We will see. This was such a fun little project, and super easy too!
I started by emptying a wine bottle…ummm…by drinking some wine. I then smeared dish liquid all over the label and soaked the bottle in warm water for 2 hours. This makes pealing the label off so easy.
Then I grabbed this cute stencil and my Frosted Glass Paint in white from DecoArt and got down to business.
These stencils stick right to glass and curve with the bottle as well. I took my dauber and dabbed the frosted glass paint onto the stencil. Let dry for a couple of hours, then remove the stencil. You can reuse the stencil, all you have to do is wipe it off.
I bought this stopper at Crate and Barrel, but have seen them everywhere…Walmart, Target, Meijer, etc… Fill your bottle with dish liquid and pop the stopper in the top!
And get to washin’ those dishes Mom 4 Real style!
You can also turn a wine bottle into an olive oil decanter…see that tutorial here.
Have some extra wine corks lying around? Make your own cork board…
Um, I’m grabbing a stopper this weekend to make one of these! So glad you shared, Jess! And Hi Beth!
Hey Keri!
I’ve got my wine bottle, just need a stopper too!
Such a cute idea! Now where do you buy the stencils that stick to the bottle?
You can buy them at Michael’s, Jane
They are made my DecoArt, and Martha Stewart has a nice line of glass stencils as well!

She is just so smart. What a great idea!!
Beautiful! I didn’t know you could buy the stoppers individually, definitely checking that out!
Thank goodness dish soap isn’t the same color as oil. I’d have to drink the bottle of wine so I could make my soap bottle then probably cook immediately after while in a wine induced haze, well lets just say thankfully I’m not color blind when I’ve had to much to drink or my food might have a soapy taste.

Love the stencil! Thanks for the tutorial, think I’ll try this but will have to recruit some wine drinkers
Love it!!!
Love the wine bottle soap dispenser and the wine cork pin board!! I am planning on doing a Paris theme in my kitchen/family room and these will be great!
Wine..Jess… I am in heaven!
Great project!
I LOVE this idea! I had no idea they had stoppers like that. Definitely going to do this with my old bottles!
So cute! And such a good idea! Love this one!

Pregnancycare is of utmost importance during the nine months, but a

If it is negative but you still feel as if pregnancy test you can possibly avoid it.
It’s going to be finish of mine day, however before
