Perfume Bottles on Display

Perfume and other scent products are pieces of artwork that usually come in distinctively attractive containers - odd shapes, vibrant colours, and intricate designs. If you have this large collection of perfume bottles, you might not feel like throwing empty ones into the bin just yet. Antique containers or branded scents can be used as decorative accents in your home. It would be a pity not to showcase their elegance and beauty.

Collecting, caring, and displaying perfume bottles are fun to do. Over the years, perfume containers have evolved from stone jars to glass bottles - from geometric to graceful, and from simple to sophisticated. Collecting perfume bottles can be based on one's preference, such that the collection is solely according to antiquity, brand, size, or other shared characteristics. However, you can pool just about any bottle that catches your attention. Tall or short, old or new, coloured or clear - it may not matter to you as long as the bottle has a character to show or a story to tell. Garage sales and antique stores are just some of the places to hunt for collectible perfume bottles. You can purchase them from online vendors, as well.

To get started at displaying your collection, pick out the perfect spot for them. It is advisable to exhibit only empty bottles, since perfume storage prerequisites no longer hold. If you display filled containers, it is necessary to observe good perfume care. Perfume beyond their shelf life will lose its potency, so use it all up on time. Clean the bottles using a window cleaner to make them shine. A covered glass rack or shelving will make the bottles stand out. You may buy new display furniture or use your old one at home.
