Fun recycled glass bottle project with no waste!

Posted on December 1, 2014 by Eric Robert Posted in Blog Content 6 Comments

This project was created because my breakfast restaurant needed some personalized cream containers for those who don’t want to use prepackaged creamers.

I cut the bottles below the existing seam in the glass.

When I created the containers, there was a part of the bottle left. It sure looked like a bell to me. By adding a bit of sandblasting and a clangor, it now is a bell that will make nice gifts for the servers at the restaurant and others.
I started with a “Texas Pete” hot sauce bottle supplied by the restaurant.

After the glass bottle was cut, the bottom was etched.

The top of the glass bottle was etched by sandblasting.
