If you don't mind splurging on water! Your bottle tree will be lovely - and you will eventually have enough bottles. Just one of the hazards of being a thrifter - having t wait till you find something free or cheap.karen@somewhatquirkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02772267613790523188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6676245812563712199.post-47982566468890727632012-05-23T10:46:28.979-06:002012-05-23T10:46:28.979-06:00Beautiful way to use the bottles even if they did ...Beautiful way to use the bottles even if they did hold beer at one time ;)❁Velma ~Down Our Country Road❁https://www.blogger.com/profile/00688975970842662227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6676245812563712199.post-45288837404205628972012-05-19T16:33:20.518-06:002012-05-19T16:33:20.518-06:00You have such a great sense of humor.. it always c...You have such a great sense of humor.. it always cracks me up~~LOL!!<br /><br />We live in a little tiny town, and most of us are mormons and therefore..not drinkers.<br />Finding the bottles is like looking for a needle in a haystack!<br />Maybe it's a price thing.<br />Seems as though there are quite a few brown bottles..but not green and blue. Perhaps those brands are more pricey?<br /><br />I did find a resource on Amazon that sells empty wine and beer bottles in bulk, and they are pretty cheap. I think I may just go that route.<br /><br />Can't wait to see if you get hooked, and have to have your own bottle tree..{grin}Kerinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05416650902627197826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6676245812563712199.post-30770615941428059952012-05-19T16:15:56.779-06:002012-05-19T16:15:56.779-06:00Would they let you go on sabatical? LOL! Just so ...Would they let you go on sabatical? LOL! Just so you could complete your collection? Are there any non-Mormons there that drink? Any liquor stores near-by? Recycling centers? <br />I drink Corona which is a clear bottle and Blue Moon which is brown with a blue label. They don't recycle glass here so thanks for the idea! This is a "dry" county too but you'd be amazed at all the liquor around here! LOL! Tell people "no" and they're immediately drawn to it.<br />I like a beer after I mow the yard and when it's hot. In the winter I'll have a glass of red wine. I had Italian relatives and I had wine at supper when I was little. I guess they didn't trust the water! Ha! Ha! My Mother's side of the family didn't drink at all. In fact, they were very strict religiously. They were Methodists but they didn't drink, play cards, dance or go to movies. I'm more like the Greeks....everything in moderation. But it has gotten way too acceptable in our society. Good luck....you may have to take a trip here. Although many drink from cans now. I love the ideas though. I knew of the bottle trees but hadn't seen the others. I may have to drink more now! LOL! See what you've done? LOL!

We collected bottles. I wonder if I blogged that a long time ago. Hmmm<br /><br />Sorry there are no bottles up here.

I don't have a clue where you could find enough to work with. I do remember my grandmother taking bromo seltzer for headaches and the bottles were blue, but shorter.

That's how I was raised. <br />Anyway, I like your ideas for decorating outside with bottles. I saw a cute idea on Pinterest the other day to make garden markers with old forks & wine corks. Alas, I don't have any corks. : )<br /><br />Smiles,<br />CarolCarolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16807721575596262434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6676245812563712199.post-75005902665504228972012-05-17T11:45:49.579-06:002012-05-17T11:45:49.579-06:00Good luck finding the bottles for your bottle tree...Good luck finding the bottles for your bottle tree.Grandma Barb's This and Thathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06639649601385700411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6676245812563712199.post-55549599768717538452012-05-17T11:16:07.040-06:002012-05-17T11:16:07.040-06:00Thanks for the tip Marcia !
