Green Glass Company’s Recycled Wine Bottles

by

glass flower vaseOne of Green Glass Company’s featured recycled products is the Shades Bud Vase. This bud vase is simple yet elegant and colorful. It uses four bottle tops attached to a glass pane. The glue makes the vase waterproof but they also suggest that it would make a wonderful candle holder using tapered candles.

The glass vase can also be used as a candle holder Green Glass Company cautions you to add a little water before inserting a tealight.

Recycled Goblets and Tumblers

The Royal Collection is quite striking with bright blue colored glass. The glass goblets, tumblers and candle holders were all created with reclaimed Bordeaux bottles.

If you’re looking for a more casualcactus tumbler tumbler, consider these Cactus Tumblers created from the bottoms of Mexican Sol beer bottles. They would work for an outdoor picnic or barbecue.

 

Green Glass Company will do custom orders if you have specific bottles you want glasses created out of and they also purchase certain bottles that they’re in need of. Check out their website for more wonderful colorful glass creations and colors.
