Status: offline 		Dug an old Tru Ade bottle that had pretty much lost all of the acl so I painted one back on. What do you guys think? Anyone else ever tried doing this before?

Status: offline 		Looks like a pretty good paint job.  I'm not much into  those types of  soda bottles but I have 2 crates of them I picked up on this farm and I was able to touch up a couple labels with colored fingernail polish.   Afterwards you couldn't tell.  
At the time I was curious to see what kind of results I could get but got bored after doing 2 of them.

Status: offline 		Suzanne! I have a favor to ask of you. I remember reading a while back on another thread some well said words that you said..something like " A farmer long ago held up a bottle to the sun and thought how God was good, not Allah, not Buddah..." Could you repeat that verse for me again? I found it quite well said and just can't remember how it went!

Status: offline 		I don't remember either.  I have a short attention span, sorry, it's the adhd.    E-package found a lovely hutch and was unhappy because it some groundwear or something.  He may be a glass is half empty type of guy.  (E-package, if you are reading this, I'm just kidding!  Love ya.)
