Funky Wine Racks or Do It Yourself Wine Racks - The
Choice is Yours
There is nothing quite like a good bottle of wine, the sheer pleasure you get from the first and the last
glass. The bouquet or the wine, the color, the taste, how smooth it feels going down are all important
when it comes to wine. One small little characteristic that is often over looked is the way you store
your wine. This is just as important and often more complex of a situation then finding that perfect
bottle of wine.
To properly store your wine collection, you need to take into consideration how to insulate, and how
to maintain the correct humidity and temperature to store the wine. Plus you need to make sure that
the wine rack fits in with your home décor and expresses you as a wine connoisseur. The right wine
rack can help keep that $80 bottle of wine from turning to store shelf vinegar.
Depending on where you go and what you are looking for, you are bound to find some of the funkiest
looking things that are considered wine racks. I have seen multicolored plastic looking ink blobs that
are made to be stackable to hold as many bottles of wine as you would like. The prices that people are
willing to pay for these types of wine racks can be in excess of two hundred dollars. I have also seen
what looks like an inside out peg board where the wine bottles are clipped in by the neck and hang on
the wall.
One may think that unique and funky could be one and the same when we are talking about wine
racks, but in reality they are not. There are three very unique wine rack designs that I have seen as of
late, one of which is what is called a wine tree. To look at this rack empty, you would think it is just a
pile of metal spikes that are trying to hug each other. Really what it is, is an elaborately crafted wine
tree, where the wine bottles sit upside down in the tree branches and give a very beautiful appearance
yet functional as the wine is upside down so that the cork still touches the wine, keeping it from
drying out. One of my other favorites is a huge movie reel that you can fit the wine into the circles on
the inside.
One of the most durable and corrosive resistant metals is rod iron, or wrought iron. This metal is
usually finished in a black powder and will last for years. The beauty that is brought out by the strong
metal makes an even more elegant display of your best vintage. The rod iron wine racks come in a
variety of sizes and shapes so that you can meet your needs while keeping with your home décor.
There are wine rack manufacturers out there to meet the needs of any person looking for a wine rack.
Whether or not you are looking to custom build your own or buy one that is already made, you can
find what you are looking for on the internet. There are literally hundreds of options available to you.
You just need to know what you are looking for.

Can't find a wine rack that tickles your fancy, you can make one yourself. There are a few things that
you will need to keep in mind. Make sure that your room is properly insulated and that the humidity
in the storage area is just right. Make sure that you are keeping 4 to 6 inches between your bottle slots
as that even wine needs breathing room. You also may want to go with a darker material when
building your wine rack so that you are giving it the right touch of elegance.
There is in fact a wine rack for everyone that enjoys wine and has a few bottles on hand. Don't store
them upright, always make sure that they are angled and use darker material to build your own to
make it more elegant.
