Build a Wine Rack for Under $20

Project courtesy of My Home My Style

Free space is in short supply in many kitchens, which can make finding room to store wine bottles a real challenge. This cleverly designed wine rack solves that problem: It can be displayed on the end of a cabinet, underneath a cabinet, or on a countertop, depending on your individual needs. And its clean lines look great in any style of kitchen from contemporary to traditional.

 

Considering how much this sleek rack has going for it, you’ll be amazed at how easy it is to build and how little the materials will set you back. You’ll turn standard 4"-diameter PVC pipe into C-shaped “cradles” that securely hold the bottles. To make them, pick up a five-foot section at the home center for a few dollars. The cradles get fastened to a base made from inexpensive 1x4 lumber.

 

 

 

 

This wine rack is an easy-to-build project for just about anyone: Just follow these six steps. After you’ve finished cutting, sanding, and spray-painting the cradles and brackets, attach the cradles to the brackets by driving screws through pre-drilled holes in the cradles (see images below).
