There's actually many different things you can do, it just depends on how
much you want to spend. I went the thrifty route by reusing an old big
entertainment center. It was in the basement already, so I stacked my
bottles in there. You could use cubes, I already had these little wood wine
racks that you put together and made them to fit the different sections of
the entertainment center. Then last year, I bought I basic curtain rod,
nailed it to the top and front of the center, and then recycled some
curtains to cover the front. To stop any light from getting in there, sewed
a dark lining to the inside of the curtains. It works very well. I'm now
trying to think about how to do the same thing around the additional wine
rack my husband bought me last year.
