Last November I went to Dead Horse Bay with a very respectable guide and regaled you with tales of our treasures. Well, now that spring has sprung, I've gone back and stocked up with even more scavenged new-old loot.
This time I was escorted by the awesome Amy Azzarito from Apartment Therapy. I forgot to take a single photo of the beach because I was too distracted A. looking for bottles and B. talking with this amazing girl. She is a bee keeper who wrote her grad thesis on counter culture architecture for god sakes! Geodesic domes!Oh well. We will just have to go back again so I can take more pictures.
Last time I beefed up my milk glass collection and this time I looked for smaller clear glass bottles that I could use for flowers. Milk bottles and inks wells, etc...
The 15 or so bottles that I took home are now living tucked away in my picnic basket with the rest of my hoarded clear bottles. All 37,000 of them (I joke). I have too many to even display so I've been stashing them away, out of sight out of mind.
I can't wait to make little clusters of wildflower/weed bouquets come summer. And maybe even empty out that darn picnic basket so I can finally get some use out of it!
Check out our pictures from our trip to Dead Horse Bay two weeks ago:

Oh my! Wow... I wish I lived close to you so I could borrow some of these perfectly lovely bottles!:)
ReplyDeleteI'm so jealous of this beach of treasures. That little milky jug in the first picture is just perfect.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what to think. It's amazing and confounding all at the same time.

ReplyDeleteYes, lets do it on either the 7th or the 11th. You pick!

ReplyDeleteDear Amy,
ReplyDeleteI was wondering, how do you get your dirty bottles so scrupulously clean?! I too, collect glass bottles from the beach and I'm having a hard time finding out a technique that works? Any tips?

What a great idea. I always love the way old glass bottles look but I never end up buying any because I always think they're something I'll be able to pick up anytime.
ReplyDelete!!! I have been meaning to go to Dead Horse Bay ever since I found out about it a year ago and this post has inspired me to get my act together and go this weekend!
