apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I don't really like how it looks up close, but from a distance it's lovely.

That does look really cool from a distance...

Would never work in my house though, where we have a feline saboteur on the loose. In no time at all it would go from "stained glass" to "stained carpet."

So pretty, and so not earthquake-safe...

fyi... NOTHING is safe from earthquakes.

It would look great in the right room with even one row of it. It would look tacky in the wrong room regardless.

Yeah, baileyb, I can imagine it in a country style room and looking like a craft project gone awry.

what hyacinthine said.

I'm not partial to the jars used here, but I do keep interesting antique bottles, filled with colored water, lined up along my bedroom windowsill. The tops seal easily with dripped candle wax when there isn't a cork available. They're attractive even when sunlight isn't shining through them.

My mom did something like Vincent suggested and gets lots of compliments....

"We could see using this idea for a themed party." What kinda theme??

(sorry if the question seems sarcastic, it's not meant to - I'm just curious what kind of party you were imagining!)

Meh.

i like it. i just would be sure they were secured...something bumping the wall will send them all crashing onto the soon-to-be tie-dyed floor. (which could be cool I guess...)

Emika — when I wrote that I was actually thinking Halloween and Christmas, but I happen to hate orange and black together (and black "tinted" water? yuck), as well as red and green together. But baby and wedding showers where there's already a color scheme, school colors for a graduation, that kind of thing might translate well. Thanks for asking!

Clever!

If you have a high window with a bad view this would be great!!
