I have tons and tons of glass bottles. esp pellegrino and clear juice + wine bottles. i used them for water on the table for a bistro feel. for get togethers, i use bottles with wider mouths. and then label still, sparkling and drinks accordingly. my guest love it! thanks!

I love this idea! I’ve been saving wine bottles and this sounds like the perfect way to use them!

Marissa – Saratoga water, I’m a bit obsessed with those bottles myself…

I am now kind of obsessive about saving glass bottles — I’ll have yet another use in an upcoming post. I hope I’m not becoming a hoarder…

I have been buying the cobalt blue bottled water (I forget the name but you would know) the Italian stuff with lime or lemon (mmmmm)…and I save the bottles as well. I haven’t been reusing them yet, but I plan on it!

I also have reused some little bottles (I think they once had hot sauce in them). They have a plastic stopper, and I filled them with a mixture of Ballard Organics Castile soap and water, presto…instant hand soap in a pretty glass bottle!

I re-use glass mineral water bottles all the time. I make ginger beer or iced teas and coffees and use them to store them. If I am lucky the bottle’s original closure is a screw cap, if not I purchase corks and in the case of teas and coffees for home enjoyment cover the openings with a rubber banded square of parchment paper.
