Bottled Up Designs

Laura Bergman found her inspiration while hiking in the woods. It wasn’t so much the gentle hues of the flora and fauna that compelled her, but the sight of baby deer running in fields of broken glass (fields of glass? where is this?). Alas, Laura decided to harvest these fragments to create unique necklaces, earrings, rings and bracelets. Hence, Bottled Up Designs was born. Each piece Laura creates comes with a history of the glass, which includes ruby made from Schlitz beer bottles, cobalt blue from Milk of Magnesia and olive derived from vintage soda bottles, combined with silver wire forged in the US. Prices start at $40. A lifelong naturalist from Pennsylvania Amish Country, Laura is devoted to environmental causes. So if you have a secret penchant for colorful shards, you can now have your drink and wear it too.
