I know this isn’t a Halloween project but I have found myself flattening and cutting bottles quite a bit lately so this looks like an interesting project to try. I got this from Laura Make’s blog, which I found through Glass is Life’s post on Facebook. What a get a real kick out of is Laura’s honesty about the difficulty in cutting wine bottles. It’s not easy and most of the time the bottle breaks horribly. Persistence pays off though…I tend to go right to the tile saw and grinder to do my cutting. It’s rather aggressive but generally works. The end product of Laura’s project is lovely and looks worth the effort. Give it a try and send pictures in to post later…
