Torpedo Bottles Used as Hanging Vases

Can I say how thankful I am that Pennsylvania is now fully open so I can visit the antique and thrift stores once again!   I love to search for unique vintage or antique pieces for my home decor.  And, I’ve really missed it!  Today, I’m sharing a vintage find from several years ago:  pretty green glass bottles with a rounded bottom called torpedo bottles.   With the rounded bottoms, you can’t sit them on a surface to use as a vase, so I made them into hanging vases.  My original post about repurposing these torpedo bottles is from 2016!  I’m re-sharing it for this week’s Home & Decor Encore!

Your trio of beautiful light blue bottles holding lovely florals is awesome! The way the light plays on it - so pretty and so clever.

I am so glad I found you. You are one talented crafting artist!!!!!

Have a blessed, happy and healthy weekend.

Hi Doreen, I am new to Hymns and Verses and I’m enjoying it. Love the pretty bottles hanging in your window. Looking forward to being a long time friend and picking up some good tips and home decorating projects. I live in the Savannah, Georgia area so it’s full blown summertime with air conditioners running round the clock ⏰. Remember me with sole cooling recipes and drinks 🍷.
