Gold Leaf Glass

I recently wrote about my visit to Terrain in Westport, Connecticut. Terrain is one of those stores where you really have to look carefully at everything around you. There are so many nuggets of goodness there. Take this, for example:

Look at those gold leaf bottles!

What a nice way to add a little glitz and make a simple bottle something really special. I like how the gold leaf here is only on the bottom section, making it more mod and graphic. You can fill the bottle with water and some leaves as shown here, or apply it to another glass surface (like a vase or candlesticks) for a unique and great gift.
