I've been saving wine bottles for a very long time. I have a large plastic garbage can that I've been filling with the bottles over the past year and now the can is full. I have to do something with them in order to continue to collect more. I really don't have the room to fill another garbage can so I decided to make a border next to the sidewalk at the back of the house. My fear is that in winter while shoveling I might hit the bottles and break them but we rarely shovel that walk so maybe it will be ok.
Since it's been raining a lot the ground is nice and soft so it was easy to dig a little trench. I set the bottles at random in the little trench then pounded them in with a rubber mallet. Then I filled the dirt back in between the bottles. It was fun to read the labels and surprisingly, I remember where and when we drank the wine. It was like a trip down memory lane making it so much fun to install each bottle.

Surprisingly, the giant bin of bottles didn't go as far as I thought they would so I guess we will have to work on filling it back up again.
