Glass Bottles

How creative am I with my posts title. HA!

I found this pack of 4 soda bottles at a small Mexican grocery store. I thought it would look good on my bar cart.  And after consuming the drink, I would have 4 glass vases. The soda to put it mildly, was horrible. YUCK. Even my kids refused to drink it.

Not on bar cart.

 I dumped  the soda, washed the bottles, peeled the label and this is what I had in mind.The soda cost $1.99 for a pack of 4.

    Love your ideas. I have a pretty wine bottle that I am waiting will finish so I can wash, peel label and use as a planter. Makes me think I should get on that job and finish the bottle first ;-)

    Me: Ohh will you take a picture of it? Also let me know whether the wine was any good. ;)

    Loved the glasses/vases:) I love plonking flowers everywhere possible too. I just don’t do it half as creatively as you do :)

    What is a church house, please tell me. And I love the flowers n greens you have brought into the house. Lucky you, managing to keep such delicate things around with 2 kids around the house. I would not dare!! :(

    Me: dude. I moved into a apt in a church. You know, another friend who has a 3 yr old made the same comment, that she wouldnt dare have a bar cart with wine glasses. The younger boys havent touched anything at all. I think if you set them out at the right age, they tend to ignore it.

    Great idea! I can see using that on my kitchen window sill…

  7. I like the bamboo shoots (just that they dont like me). And loved the tray holding the bamboo :)

    Good item for decoupage, no?

    Me: I am looking for maps to decoupage with.

    OH MY GOD…have all the tequila (but not shakila) you want if this is the end result. I lived for nearly three years in a church house as well…but my place wasnt even one percent as beautiful as yours.
