Everywhere I look I am seeing bottles. They look coastal.

They look romantic glowing with candles.
You get the idea. They are showing up in decor everywhere. And, a vintage bottle is always a great find. So shopping the antique stores recently I came across two.
This bottle is similar to PB's in the first picture. It is encased in wicker, old, and really unique. I priced the one similar to mine, 16 inches high on PB's website, it was $179.00. My bottle at local antique store $18.
I don't have a comparison for this bottle but it has all the great features of a vintage bottle. The great green color, thick uneven glass with flaws, and bubbles that show it has been hand blown. This bottle has a round bottom, so it can't even sit upright, that has me really intrigued. This bottle I got for $5.
If you don't have any luck at an antique store. I found this really cute bottle at TJMaxx for just $4.99. It came with this really neat tin seahorse tag. Love that. I purchased the corks for the last two bottles at Walmart in the craft department.
