DIY Apothecary Bottles

Amber colored glass apothecary type jars are all the rage right now in the world of home decor.  I came up with a cheap and easy way to make your own.  If you happen to drink the Kevita brand of Kombucha, it comes in an amber glass bottles about 8 inches high.  These actually make great apothecary bottles and it's a good way to recycle them!

Just remove the label from the empty bottle.  Use some Goo-Gone to remove all the glue, then wash the bottle thoroughly with soap and water or put it in the dishwasher.  I used alcohol to further sterilize the inside.  You can purchase labels at craft stores and create your own bottles to store bath salts, alcohol, witch hazel or any other product you want.  You can also decorate the bottles with burlap or jute twine.  You can create some great home made gifts for friends and family while also being kind to the planet.
