where to get colord glass?

(1/2) > >>

beartail:
just wondering if anyone knew where you could get some different colored glass for knapping.checked local glass companies and all they had was smoked or black.thank you for your help.

bubby:
Beer bottles, wine bottles, skyy vodka is cobalt blue, ebay has fiber optic glass, the list goes on

flungonin:
Check the Go Green recycle bins in your neighbourhood, dumpsters near bars, exit ramp bushes off major highways or Interstates. I found a couple Busch Platinums in the bushes at a Farm Fresh far end of the parking lot. Its kind of endless once you figure how much people litter.

RickB:
Check out your local flea markets, yard sales and thrift stores for old cheap glass. Rick B

cowboy:
Old dumps if you know where they are. Lots of bottle bottoms. Blues, white, Amber and red.
