    If you were going to do that, it seems like you should fill the bottom half with cement or something - otherwise they’d be top heavy.

      I think they’re lamps made out of beer bottles (just with no lightbulbs installed yet, they’d sit in the top).

        For a minute I thought these were carbonation savers, special caps for fizzy wines that make it so they don’t lose to much bubbles over night.

      Further context for outside US: The bottles are from two of the most common, cheap domestic beers, which can be found everywhere but are strongly associated with low-brow party culture of the suburbs and the holler (tailgating, barbecues, etc). Like, if you order one of these at an upscale place, it’s probably either to signal to others that you’re a person of simple tastes or just because it’s the absolute cheapest thing on the menu.

    Classy af to be sure, but wouldn’t work without a base to keep it from falling over. My cats love to launch themselves around, mostly when I am asleep and would certainly destroy these beauties.
