This Recycled Champagne Glass Tray, is one of the most beautiful and fun gift ideas, I’ve come across in a while ! A champagne bottle flattened into a gorgeous tray. The deep green color of the glass, combined with ornamental decoration of copper and glass beads, makes it a unique and artistic, though very practical gift.  It absolutely can be a gift to yourself, and it was for me! I just had to have it.
