Along with the fast growing popularity of wine collecting, building a wine rack is now becoming a popular hobby among wine enthusiasts. Poring over building plans and shopping for timber and tools are now common weekend activities.
Wine enthusiasts today are very fortunate as there are many DIY plans available for them to choose from. Below is a simple but effective guide to help you choose a plan that is most appropriate for you.
Wooden Wine Cabinet
1) Table or Counter Top Wine Rack Plans
Table or counter top wine racks are great space-savers, suitable for smaller wine collections ranging from 1 to 12 bottles. They provide a more decorative function while providing an area to store wine, simply ideal for small gatherings.
2) Wine Furniture / Wine Tower / Wine Rack Cabinet Plans
Wine furniture is suitable for small to medium-sized collections. Wine furniture includes wine cabinets and wine towers which can double up as the focal showcase piece in a room as well as serve as a storage solution for one's wine collection. Wine cabinets will typically be equipped with a solid wood door on the lower part and upper glass doors for easy viewing. You can store drinkable wine as well as wine which you wish to keep for a considerable period of time.
3) Floor Wine Rack Plan
Floor wine racks can be used as decorative pieces as well as storage for small to very large wine collections. They are a great alternative to wall mounted wine racks if the walls are not ideal for attaching wall-mounted furniture. In addition, floor wine racks can easily be used to complement surrounding pieces of furniture by applying the appropriate finish and color.
4) Wine Cart And Wine Trolley Plans
Wine carts and trolleys are multifunctional. They allow you to easily move wine and other items from the kitchen to other rooms or even outdoors with ease when entertaining guests. Another example of a multifunctional wine rack would be to incorporate it in a kitchen island for the purpose of saving space as well.
5) Stackable and Modular Wine Rack Plans
Modular or stackable wine racks allow you to start small and easily add to your collection as and when needed. This option is cost effective and can be used for all types of situations and wine collectors. Such racks are especially useful when storing wine in cellars. If you have a wine collection that comprises many bottles of just a few varieties of wine, you could consider selecting building plans for stackable bins or diamond cubes. Conversely, if you have a wine collection that comprises many varieties each with a relatively low number of bottles, then a stackable shelf-like plan would be more ideal. You can label each shelf for each wine variety for ease of management.
6) Wall Mounted Wine Rack Plans
Wall mounted wine racks are great space savers and allow you to display your wine collection in the best possible light while preserving your wine. Some wall mounted wine racks cradle the entire bottle, evenly distributing its weight while others are designed to hold the bottles by inserting the neck of the bottle into a padded hole in the wall mounted wine rack. The latter design makes it easier to read the labels and remove the wine bottles from the wine rack. Many wall mounted wine racks are also modular in nature. Additional shelves can be easily added to accommodate one's growing wine collection.
