It was like cobblestones.<br /><br />As you say, these "old timey" things get "out of fashion" and then everyone is sorry they did away with them!!!Olde Dame Penniwighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11871888334179316997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210015972876874421.post-38095524658337699712010-02-04T18:35:47.025-06:002010-02-04T18:35:47.025-06:00Molly, those are all so pretty!

I fell in love with one last week at the Everyday Gardener in Jackson, and plan to go back and get it soon (hopefully, it will still be there).<br /><br />I love your new blog look -- it's perfect for spring!<br /><br />I can't wait to see yours!Southern Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13451320470435065945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210015972876874421.post-12842000464039598412010-02-04T10:47:25.316-06:002010-02-04T10:47:25.316-06:00Well anybody visiting my blog already knows I have...Well anybody visiting my blog already knows I have several.<br /><br />I had to LOL at my hair stylist. She and a lady were talking about a house for sale in Crystal Springs on one of the main streets that run into town.<br /><br />She said and they have that tacky ol bottle tree in the yard. When I snorted and cracked up, she asked why. I said well if you drive down my road I have 6 or 7 of those tacky old bottle trees in my yard.<br /><br />Her face turned very red.The JRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10860982258621823529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210015972876874421.post-38439513954082516292010-02-04T09:30:01.794-06:002010-02-04T09:30:01.794-06:00I've never seen or heard of bottle trees befor...I've never seen or heard of bottle trees before. I have seen potting sheds created with bottles - different colors of them - cemented like rocks - and a roof added. Once I spotted a gazebo created out of colored bottles and concrete - very interesting artistic talents!ClassyChassyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12645241442596037812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210015972876874421.post-60981077590566422832010-02-03T21:56:32.641-06:002010-02-03T21:56:32.641-06:00Molly,

I was surprised to see someone else post about the bottle tree again. I think it is beautiful! I don't know if my husband would let me have one either. I don't have any small trees near my house even though I am surrounded by woods. You can go here to see Granny Sue's blog about what she wrote about it here http://grannysu.blogspot.com/2008/03/building-blue-bottle-bush.html<br /><br />I do hope that you get your blue bottle tree this Summer!<br /><br />Hugs,<br />AngelaAngelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15240864960032938754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210015972876874421.post-75866331127155064412010-02-03T18:03:12.087-06:002010-02-03T18:03:12.087-06:00liked the blue tree the best, wow how fun. thanks...liked the blue tree the best, wow how fun. thanks for finding these. can't say that I ever saw one up close and personal.Bevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01830500856878707370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210015972876874421.post-28095815717298662902010-02-03T18:03:07.096-06:002010-02-03T18:03:07.096-06:00Molly,
