Wine Themed Sofa Table

My DIY wine barrel lid lazy susan
in my previous post got me
thinking of more wine themed ideas.  
Why not a wine theme on the sofa table?
'Wine in a box'
I had everything I needed. 
I started with a wood wine crate and filled
 it with blue and white grape leaf plates. 
I put wine bottles in 4 different
 holders: a fabric bag, a clay chiller, 
a Longaaberger basket and a metal tote.
I also added a Longaberger ice bucket
 basket and an 'Entertaining With Wine' book.
'Va-Va-Va Vino' notebook to record
memorable wines or times and my
favorite wine bottle opener.
An apothecary jar filled with corks and a
glass wine decanter to properly aerate the 
wine and let it ~breathe~. 
It does make a difference. Even cheap 
inexpensive wines taste better.
A candle hurricane filled with pebbles.
 A small Longaberger basket holds a few of 
my assorted wine stoppers. 
(in case there is leftover wine.)
 The small blue lidded basket holds all my
 wine charms. A little wine bar/sofa table.
Lucky is demonstrating that wine 
can make one sleepy!
Cheers!

  2. Very resourceful!!! What better or more creative way to enjoy "wine in a box" than this? :-) MUCH better box!!! Something like this would make a great hostess gift or welcome-to-the-neighborhood gift. Lucky has the right idea...sip a bit, then take a nap!
