    My New Poison Bottles...

    Water spots on inside of bottle

    Hi I have a Vapo Cresolene bottle in aqua, and it's beautiful, but never dries right. In the sun, out, and always upside down drying. The neck is narrow and wide square bottle. Then I see water spots. Any advice? Nick

    Lighted shelves?

    Has anyone done this? I'm picturing white light lit from the bottom of the bottle display. I just got my first bottle of my collection in, and put an led flashlight under it tonight, and I think it would be beautiful. Thoughts? Any pics of nice lighted displays? Nick

    Laudanum, with label - real?

    LOL @ patterson. Luckily, I am more attracted to the cure all labeled bottles, and the colored glass poisons. I'm going to pass on this one. Thanks for the advice. Nick
