Hi Ladies-
So Yesterday when I was out at the dairy, I realized that there was only a single stack of printed milk bottles. I asked Karen about them and she said they never printed on their own milk bottles so any printed ones were from other dairies as they closed. So I bought all that she had which was only 20. Since she didn't have as many as the clear ones, I had to pay more for them. But I knew some of you ladies might like the printed ones.
So if you would like printed bottles, please let me know.
These are just a sample of some of the printed ones. I can't say what colors or patterns we will find as we go through the bottles. I will do my best to fill any requests, but some are one of a kind. Thanks!
I am selling them for $6 a piece. I have red, blue, and green printing. I really love these. Thanks!

I'm the one who lives in Newport, Wash & I ordered several bottles. Thanks. I think I forgot to sign my name to my email. It's to "hot_nana8888 @ yahoo. |

Y'know, I think that Kathie in Florida just needs to get herself a big 'ol U-haul and start her Summer Farmgirl Tour! She can drive up the east coast picking up & delivering mini-aprons. Bring your sewing machine and stop in the midwest to have a quilt top party with smoothiejuice and me. Move on out westward to pick up milk bottles. Then way on out west to get antique treadle sewing machines. Down through California and back across the desert to Berries in Texas where she can drop our quilt tops off to have them quilted, and then on home to Florida.
I know I've missed some farmgirl pitstops, but she can garage sale and antique and give hugs and spread sunshine to all along the way, and she'll be home in time for Labor Day. Whadda ya think, Kathie???!! Ha!

Kathy i think that sounds like one of the best idea's i've heard in years!!!!!!!! You have NO idea Sister!!!!!! Maybe it should just be a teeny little RV thing.. & nix the return to Florida idea .. but then.. where oh where would I stash all my pretties that i collect along the way? hmmmm.. Such nice visions though.. As i was sitting in the living room working on a Pocket for my Mother's Apron last night.. & the television was flashing through 20 thousand chanels per second.. ( since for some reason.. HE doesn't think it should stay on any one chanel more then a millesecond..) i was almost giggling.. WHERE am i going to put all these bottles when they arrive???????? Can you JUST imagine? Because i HAVE ordered quite a few! I've taken picture's of my sewing room to post.. i thought it would something of great comedy for everyone.. If i could just get the Gremlins out of the printer/cord/camera.. or what ever it is that is preventing me from moving my picture to my computer right now.. You will all truly enjoy the view.. But be totaly agast with disbelief.. & what a horder i am.. & how out of control this sewing room is!! You'll walk to your own sewing rooms/craft rooms.. & hug your doors! & laugh out loud that You too do not behave like Lucille Ball at a firesale!
Milk Bottles.. My husband is going to think I have something going on with the Postal service.. His enemy you know..

Here is a design idea- that I am contemplating for my own house-
get four of the the wire carriers and enough bottles to fill all of the spots- put in the living room by a window, stack one carrier on top of another and then set the other two a little distance apart. Put a board on top and viola! A new table! You ladies would laugh at me right now. The bottles are taking over my living room, porch and a bit of the yard. Luckily my neighbors are to nice to complain! LOL! I am shipping a bunch of boxes today and Monday though- so slowly my stash is dwindling.
It is really hard when I go out to the dairy. I see all these cool bottles that I just love! So it is amazing that I am selling any at all! LOL I would love to keep them all to myself...but I think Doug would take Nora and run away from home if I did that! LOL

Hi Lorna-
The wire crates are big enough for Half Gallons to fit in, but also the quarts fit in as well. Then there are smaller crates for the pints, but I don't have any of those and I am not sure if I could find any.
