Glass/ My Town Shoot Out

 GLASS bottle turned into art

This week's My Town Shoot Out: glass

Not in my town...but close, artist Victor Tinkl's farm displays year-round outdoor art. Victor Tinkl has a great sense of humour and wants you to smile too.

 Archway, an entrance into the back yard

Can you see the GLASS bottles in the arch?

 GLASS bottles on the arch closer to the ground

Are you smiling yet?

These are quite nice. Have a happy feeling. There's a place just southwest of Ocala that makes bottle trees for sale. I like this one better than theirs, though.

At our previous home I made a bottle tree and had the bottle turned the other way, sticking them over dowels and had white Christmas lights inside so the bottles lit up at night.

Oh I love it. I try to collect those colored wine bottles but so do a lot of folks I know. Hard to get hold of here.
