'Turn into' focuses on a change from one thing to another.
'Make into' focuses on what the person does to change this thing. 'Make into' can only be a transitive verb. Or in other words, it has to have an object. 'Turn into' can be transitive or intransitive.
For example, you can say:
'I made the wine bottle into a pretty candlestick'
or
'I turned the wine bottle into a pretty candlestick'
If the meaning is intransitive (no object) you have to use 'turn into'.
The caterpillar turned into a butterfly.
The plain little girl turned into a lovely young woman.
