bottle slumping is merely melting a bottle in the kiln until it relaxes to a flat state. They're so cool. Imagine the possibilities these bottle.The appletini bottle slumps such that it has lovely ridges all the way around it. I have adorned it with beads made by smokeylady54 who sells her beads on etsy. www.smokeylady54@etsy.com cute lady bug. I see this on might dresser filled with earrings from the day. I empty mine once a month or so. The other bottle is from Perrier, bottled seltzer water...yuck!! I don't like it but the bottle slumps very nicely. They're commonly used for snack plates. Imagine serving your guests cheese and crackers on a serving platter like this. It's just fun. I also see this to incorporate into a wine cheese and cracker gift basket. You tell me your ideas on it...I'd be interested. I'll be posting and selling them in my etsy store pronto.

ReplyDeleteI love slumped bottles! But I for one, had no idea what they were called and two didn't know how they were created.
ReplyDeleteThey're great!
