We are suckers for recycling something banal into something beautiful. Dutch designer Tord Boontje and wife, glass artist Emma Woffenden have created TranSglass, a line of signature glass vases that turn the everyday wine or beer bottle into a sculptural centerpiece.

Although some TranSglass pieces now belong to the Museum of Modern Art and London's Design Museum, the vases and decanters still live at everyday prices. Carried at Chicago's I.D., you'll find varied shades of green and brown glass vases from $25-$45.
