Finding a filler to hide the cord in your bottle lamp can also offer a unique style as well.
Dave sent us some pictures of his latest bottle crafts and this message:

Getting enough filler to hide your power cord is only half the battle. Incorporating a visual balance is just as important.
White power cord, white filler – A win win.
Rusty nails and other miscellaneous pieces offer a more rustic look.
A bottle with LED lights can offer a simple elegance to any color glass.
By incorporating different types of materials Dave has offered a nice alternative to regular glass fillers. We would like to thank Dave for sharing his bottle craft projects with us.

Just wanted to say that I have been wishing to get into making bottle lamps. I have been a woodworker for many years along with a Law Enforcement Officer. But now I have been forced to disability and I try to do woodworking at home. I have made lamps from all kinds of wood along with turning old fire extinguisher’s into lamps. But I have wished to try making lamps from bottles along with getting a way to cut bottles. So I hope to be able to get the bottle cutter from you when I get the money together to do so. Being on a fixed income it’s not easy to get things that I want so fast. But I am thankful for the email which I am going to keep to be able to get a bottle cutter. Thank You Again and God Bless.
Mr. Hawkins,
Thank you for your service as a member of the Law Enforcement Community. We’ll keep you posted on the up-coming giveaway and how you can enter to win!
Sincerely,
Nick
Can you tell me what the Hennessy bottle is filled with and where I might find it? It looks like charcoal and that matte look is what I need.
