    This is what I do when I get depressed. I paint the bottles.

    This isn't my best job, but I can always scrub it away.

      I beg to differ, and would like to say that you did a fine job!

      Hey - that's cool SB!

      Very nice keep doing.

      I've thought of that, OleBodie. But I like painter's pens in some restorations of items, so I keep a stock of colours.

      Thank you, Racer4Four.

      Vintage_Joe, I do most embossed bottles, but none that are embossed and have a paper label or ones with thick, large embossing.

      Oh no Spirit... don't wash it away, it looks fantastic!
