Very cool Ajohn. I used to keep a bunch outside on a shelf just to see which would turn the most purple. Didn't work. Having three women in my family they gradually disappeared. I do get to visit some of them on occasion.
Ajohn I used to have a metal shelf on my front porch with un cleaned bottles from digs on it.But my wife said it was a EYE sore and made me take the bottles off.The shelf is still there.I have that feeling Bottles will start to build up again. She has no taste! [8D]
My wife just asked me this evening.. "why don't you sell them?" (my entire collection) ... I still don't know if she was serious.. any rate, the first cool million takes em![]
I must confess our collection has spilled out on to our covered patio...and yes a few in the flower beds in the back yard. I love the look and I actually get alot of compliments on the "antique garbage dump" look...lol...
I USED TO PUT A FEW UP ON THE ROOF WITH A GUTTER TO KEEP THEM FROM FALLING OFF THE ROOF . HAD EM ON ALUMINUM FOIL HOPEFULLY TO GET THEM PURPLE. ALWAYS CHEAP BOTTLES MIND YOU. MY SISTER IN LAW REMARKED TO MY WIFE ONE DAY SAYING"DO YOU KNOW YOU GOT A LOT OF BOTTLES ON YOUR ROOF"![8D] NINA HAD TO EXPLAIN WHY. JAMIE
