UpCycle Used Wine Barrels for Truly Unique Decor

Up-cycling has become extremely popular in recent years. This is likely, in large part, due to concern for the environment. However, there seems to have also been a significant uptick in creativity as DIYers have taken to social media with their unique ideas for home projects and crafting fun. Whether your goal is to save the world one decorative project at a time or simply to create a statement piece for your living room, used wine barrels provide an excellent outlet for up-cycling creativity.

Choose the barrel project

While there is no shortage of wine barrel project ideas on the internet, a particular design may work in one space better than another. Take a step back and consider the space that you want to decorate. Is it indoors or outdoors? A large living space or a small bathroom? If designing a dreamy patio garden, you may want to create some hanging barrel planters or a rustic fountain. On the other hand, a man cave might benefit from rustic pendant lighting over a barrel fronted bar or stools made from old barrel slats. Want to add some pizzazz to your family room? A coffee table made from half of a barrel may be easier than you think to accomplish.

Find the perfect barrel

At Rocky Mountain Barrel Company, we always have a wide variety of wine barrels for sale. We also carry a number of specialty barrels, including whiskey, bourbon, tequila, and rum. Each barrel is truly unique, with its own individual color, aroma, and usage history.
