This is such a genius idea! My friends and I never fail to pack bug spray for our impromptu outside summer hangs. One thing we definitely never forget are wine bottles. This would be a cute little craft to set up in the future. Thanks!

This is exactly what I need at home. I have been having problems with mosquitoes and bugs. I want to avoid using bug sprays since it could be harmful to our health. This citronella wine bottle will definitely be helpful.

What a creative take on bug repelling items. This will be great to use during outdoor parties and it doubles as a cute decoration. Love it!

Oh wow. I really need these here in South Florida, especially living next to the Everglades. We have all sorts of bugs year round. I have an endless supply of wine bottles, and these would look so pretty on our tables around the pool when we entertain. Do these really work to repel the pests? Has anyone tried this yet?

I'm loving this idea, especially at this time of the year where I live. South Africa. It is so hot this time of the year and we always have a problem with what we call "Christmas beetles". I'm going to make some of these as Christmas gifts as well as use them myself outdoors as that is where we spend most of our time at this time of the year.

These are quite lovely. I have old glass marbles left over from various fish bowls which would be perfect for this project. We have a large deck and quite a few cedars and our backyard gets quite buggy. #BestIdeaEver.
