I really like this idea, mainly because it lets people see both sides
of the bottles vs making a home out of them and having to go inside
the home to get the full effect.

I saved the photo to my desktop and did a reverse image search using
Tineye. The third response was www.duskyswondersite.com a truly
wonderful site which is the epiphany of human ingenuity. There are a few
bottle usage examples near the bottom. The caption on that photo said
The Bottle Chapel at Airlie Gardens, North Carolina. I did a google search
of that and found this wonderful video made buy Virginia Wright-Frierson.
The artist is Minnie Evans, the name of the sculpture is The Rainbow doorway.





Minnie Evans was one great person and this location obviously had a
lot of love, patience and planning go into it.

The only other idea which has really captivated me is this one of a
wave made from blue bottles, it is supported by a steel beam. I imagine
the sculpture on the beach with the beam based on a swivle so the whole
sculpture turns with the wind or the whim of those wishing to be
photographed next to it. One could observe it with the sun shinning
off of it or through it at the desired angle.



I have about 500 1 liter blue bottles and several red ones saved up for
this project, any ideas welcome.
