Heart of the Garden

I lurv little antique bottles like this, but they often end up getting knocked around or catching dust. My dad found the one on the right when he was metal detecting a historic site in Maryland so it must be old. The other one has a threaded top so it’s probably from the first half of the 20th century.

I twisted some heavy gauge beading wire and created a loop to hang them and every once in a while stick a tiny sprig in there. I rarely bother to empty out the water so they developed this pretty green patina.

My own little algae farm in a bottle.
