Using about five dollars worth of materials, plus an old wine bottle and a little skill, you can make a slick-looking replacement for a backyard bamboo tiki torch. Thanks to Mark S., who posted this on Facebook.

After searching the world over to find a torch that was affordable and atypical I came to the conclusion that unless I wanted wicker or bamboo, I would need to become a bit more resourceful. A glance into my recycling bin and an aimless stroll through the local hardware store provided me with this clear solution.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.gerardotandco.com/blog/recycled-bottle-torch/"><div align="center"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.gerardotandco.com/img/51995CAC-9506-4D6C-A02A-DB3252BB0AC5" alt="Recycled Wine Bottle Torch" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.gerardotandco.com/blog/recycled-bottle-torch/"><div align="center"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.gerardotandco.com/img/37245600-BA61-4B9F-9E88-F429A0FAC119" alt="Recycled Wine Bottle Torch" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.gerardotandco.com/blog/recycled-bottle-torch/"><div align="center"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.gerardotandco.com/img/78349608-39AB-4899-B99E-64DB27222A11" alt="Recycled Wine Bottle Torch" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.gerardotandco.com/blog/recycled-bottle-torch/"><div align="center"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.gerardotandco.com/img/8D8ED367-ADFB-4453-8890-0C52D652AF57" alt="Recycled Wine Bottle Torch" /></div></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/4F82C8EF-7FA8-42CD-A50C-43A7C12C2359/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
