This challenge uses the theme of Bottled Up and asks us to "Show us a bottle. Is it glass or plastic? Is it old? Is there a message inside? Will the contents give you a buzz, or help you fight a cold? You decide". So, here goes (be sure to check out everyone else's photos here):
This theme immediately made me think of my daughter's wedding last summer. They were married on a July afternoon and the table decorations for the reception consisted of various bottles collected from antique shows and friends. The bottles served as vases for daisies, sunflowers and other "happy" flowers.
Bottles of their favorite soda, Jones Soda, were given to their guests as favors. Each bottle had a unique label that included a picture of them, facts about them, a thank you message and their new home address. They were a hit!
These are bottles of ink that I found when cleaning out my dad's office.

. . . and these bottles were in the window of the farmhouse we stay in near Round Top, Texas.

Hi Linda :)
Ohh... I love your bottle choices! Especially the coke bottles. It is my very favorite drink, although I drink diet coke most often. Anyway, wonderful assortment.

I love the idea of using bottles as vases, some of yours sure looks unique! over here most soda bottles are in plastic, glass bottles are very rare here.
