Upcycling Trend: How to Transform Glass Bottles into Drinking Glasses at Home

Kyiv, Ukraine – A local DIY enthusiast has demonstrated an innovative method for transforming discarded glass bottles into stylish drinking glasses, promoting sustainability through creative upcycling. The process, shared by Darya Novik, involves a series of precise steps that can be replicated at home. The tutorial begins with scoring a glass bottle using a specialized glass cutter, creating a clean line where the bottle will be separated. Following the score, the bottle is subjected to thermal shock: hot water is poured over the scored line, immediately followed by cold water. This temperature difference causes the glass to cleanly break along the scored path. Once separated, the rough edge of the newly formed glass is carefully sanded to ensure a smooth, safe finish. The video concludes with the finished glass, showcasing its potential for everyday use. While the method appears straightforward, some viewers have noted potential challenges such as glass cracking or uneven breaks, as well as the importance of safety precautions like wearing gloves and ensuring proper ventilation to avoid inhaling glass dust.
