This Candle Holder Makes Clever Use of the Biggest Eyesore at Any Dinner Party — Empty Wine Bottles

Outdoor timber dining table with timber chairs and black carver chairs, plants all over the walls, and bowls and wine bottle on table.

There is nothing I love more than clever design. Whether that's a ladder that can also serve as a stylish blanket holder, a stool that transforms into a decorative end table, or a serving bowl styled as an entryway catchall — any home décor that has many manifestations has my heart. And my latest discovery? A bottle stopper that moonlights as a candle holder.

Anything Alessi already gets my attention, but this chrome wine bottle stopper slash candle holder (available at Walmart) is just too cool. The perfect dinner party table accessory? I absolutely think so. While empty wine bottles where once an eyesore, they've now got a whole new purpose.
