Me too Glamglass - I recently acquired some bright blue drink bottles with the idea of smashing them into bits and doing to glass art. I'm just too busy at the moment and have no time to experiment. I like to idea of getting brightly coloured bottles and recycling them in this way.

I would also love a studio made of brightly coloured bottles - can't see it though!

They're truly amazing. The way the light comes through those bottles wonderful.

Do you think you have to cap them? You see I just wondered - would spiders get inside if you didn't? Umm! need to work on that idea......

Gone to Earth....mmmmmm so long as the openings are on the outside they can move in just stay out of my bit...lol

Have seen a frame filled with bottles on a hinge system that you fill with fresh water it was set up in the sunshine then tipped up and get the hot water out as an when....simple solar system lol....need lots to have a bath in though could build a wall of them maybe...interesting idea anyway
