My kids like it when I put a funky twist on the everyday items we use and I like to keep things interesting – so, this idea was a hit with all of us.
Modern milk and cookies – ginger ale bottles are reused as glassware & butter cookies are stacked onto straws.
I used a funnel to fill my bottles.
I used 10-oz ginger ale bottles. Soak off labels and clean bottles with hot water and dish soap. After each use, I place these in the dishwasher and they clean up well, but you could also hand wash with a bottle brush.
Love this idea!
beautiful:)
Girl, you are soooo clever!
love J
Nice idea!
This is great! We’re definitely going to have to try something similar, thanks!
Thanks Kersey, My kids love this kind of thing – they were thrilled when I served it to them. C

What a wonderful idea! I love the how the straw is the same color as the bottle. The idea of the cookies through the straw is fantastic! so darn cute!
I love using bottles. I bought some Grolsch beer and we use the bottles for water. There’s nothing like drinking ice cold water out of a bottle on a hot summer day. I think the same might be true of milk!
Perfect…just finished some bottles and will surprise my girls!
are they glass or plastic?
Wona, They are glass. Take Care, Camilla
Hi, I love these! Soooo cute! My question is what brand are the cookies? I ate cookies that looked just like these as a child and can no longer find them! Thanks for any info.
Hi Tina, Those are Salerno butter cookies – believe it or not – I did a quick search for you and found them on Amazon – http://www.amazon.com/Salerno-Butter-Cookies-16-oz-Pack/dp/B000P0KVVS
Take care, C
What a great re-purposing! They be great for single blooms as well, all lined up in a row. I <3 the cookies on the straw!
Cute idea! I have my bottles ready but can’t seem to find cookies with hole in them…(don’t want those fudge stripe ones)…….
Love this!
Thanks Jen! Happy St. Patrick’s Day! C
