Our previous wine craft blogs were such a hit we decided to do a special an Easter edition! These crafts make great Easter decor for your home, or they can be used as gift favors for your guests. Check out our favorite DIY Easter-themed wine crafts below.

The simple, yet elegant, design of this craft makes it one of our favorites on this list. These instructions use stemless wine glasses, but traditional wine glasses can also be used if desired. Use your favorite spring and Easter colors to decorate. These make great Easter party favors!

4) Decorative Wine Bottles
Decorative wine bottles can make a wonderful addition to your home. There are a ton of different designs you can use to decorate your wine bottles, but we picked a few of our favorites.
- These painted wine bottles were used for a baby shower, but if you want more of an Easter look, just swap out the colors they used for more pastel-hued paints.
- Next, we found some bottles that are simpler in design, but provide an excellent base if you want to paint eggs, chicks or bunnies on them to give them more of an Easter look. Head to this page for more instructions (scroll down to the bottom to jump straight to the wine bottles).
- These next gorgeous decorative wine bottles are perfect if you’re not a fan of hand drawing, as they use a decorative stencil. All you need are some clear wine bottles, modge podge glue, several colors of glitter, and some brushes to get these elegant looking wine bottles. More instructions for the stenciled bottles can be found here.
- These last decorative bottles combine two of our favorite things: cupcakes and wine. For this craft, simply take Easter printed cupcake liners, and use modge podge to glue them to the bottle. As stated here in the instructions , don’t use liners from cupcakes you’ve already eaten. It may seem like a great idea, especially after you’ve finished off a few bottles of wine, but it’s not.
5) Wine Cork Bunny
This craft is relatively easy to make and only requires a couple of materials. All you need are some wine corks and a hot glue gun and you can have an adorable peep-shaped wine cork bunny.
