Bottoms Up!


I happened upon Bottlebottoms during my very first visit to Etsy and have ever since been enthralled by Chrissy's products. These glasses are not only eye-catchingly cool, but, even more importantly, are handmade out of recycled wine, juice and water bottles. It is not very often that you find so many different aspects of life you enjoy embodied in a single item, but her glasses accomplish just that for me.

If you've kept up with our blog, you already know that Baby Boss recycles pretty much everything we can get our hands on. We will also admit to enjoying a cocktail every now and then. Combine that with our love of things that have a quirky story behind them, and I can think of nothing better than relaxing on the patio and sipping a cool drink out of one of her signature recycled Perrier Tumblers (see photo). Aaaaaah.

So, the next time you're stocking your bar, in the market for some new iced tea glasses, or shopping for a unique housewarming gift, forget Target and Pottery Barn. Instead, pour yourself a cool glass of whatever floats your boat, head to your computer and pull up Chrissy's Etsy shop at http://bottlebottoms.etsy.com (or visit her directly at www.bottlebottoms.com). You're bound to find something that your glass cabinet simply cannot live without.
