Found some great seaglass this morning and came home to use one of the bottle
Top pieces to make a trellis 💜
Fun fact: Old bottles turn lilac or purple because the manganese in the glass, which was used as a decolorizer, reacts with ultraviolet (UV) light from the sun. This reaction causes an electron exchange, turning the manganese into a different compound that gives the glass a purple hue over a long period, a process called solarization.
