Our Friday Favorites {Inventory Inspiration} today features a multipurpose favorite that you may already have at home, wine bottles. I started collecting glass a few years ago, and while I can’t drink wine (oh, how I wish I could), I am in love with the beauty and variations of all the different types of glass on the market. When I went through the Master Recyclers program I learned something very interesting about glass. Did you know that it can be recycled indefinitely? Over and over, glass has no end life. Unlike paper or plastic, which degrades each time it is recycled, plastic never looses it’s awesomeness. Yes, the inner geek in me gets excited about stuff like this.
