decorating with Vintage bottles

Do you have a collection of vintage bottles lying around your house? I thought not. In India, we don’t exactly have flea markets and car boot sales to tempt us with pretty but useless bits of glass so we must make do with what we’ve got. Which really is beer bottles and stumpy, yet fun Amul lassi bottles.

You see, any space can be prettified with clean glassware. And decorating with a collection makes it even nicer. Here are some ideas to steal.
