Found: Old medicinal bottles

Very excited to have found a few of these old medicine/tonic bottles. While running errands Monday I strategically made the loop around some of my favorite places to treasure hunt.

I did come across a few true pharmaceutical bottles, but wow are they expensive. The ones I purchased were simple over the counter medicine/tonic bottles, much smaller and more reasonable at just a couple of dollars apiece.

I'm looking forward to making these into witch's potions and such for Halloween. Hopefully I can get to it before the 31st...

  1. Love your composition with the medicine bottles -- great background for anyone in the medical field or lab backgrounds. Or altered for whatever. Reminds me of my brother who was a pharmacist. Remind me to show you one of my "old" stamps that might go with this theme.
