I’m addicted to glassware. I just can’t get enough. I don’t mind having 5 sets in all different shapes and sizes. Meet my latest conquest…

These are drinking glasses from a company called Wine Punts and made from recycled wine bottles. This company in Colorado takes old wine bottles in a variety colors and cuts off the top part of the bottle. The top is recycled and the bottom half is smoothed into a drinking glass. Brilliant! The perfect marriage of great design, function and environmentalism.

I registered for them at Heath Ceramics which is one of the only places to carry them in California. You can also buy them directly from WinePunts.com. Obviously I got them in the Aqua glass color to feed my other addiction to the color turquoise as seen here and here.

Glassware you can feel good about.

PS- Thanks to the Lazzarini Family for the gift of these glasses!
