Have you ever priced any of those colored bottles that are popular? Why pay those prices? Make your own! My grandmother used to make her own. She'd collect bottles of all shapes and sizes: coffee jars, syrup bottles, ice cream topping jars, perfume bottles, etc. The fancier, the better. She'd not only spray paint them, but also put on a glaze so the paint had texture and swirls.

WOW! what a lovely idea! I cant wait to make my own "Multicoloured Bottle Tower".Now I can put my collection of perfume bottles to good use.
My mother used to make lamps from empty gallon jars. She would cut a hole near the bottom,for the eletric cord and then swirl paint inside.
My way of making colored bottles is to add food coloring to water and fill the bottles. It's fun to experiment with colors and you can change them anytime!
