    found this sweet AS/cologne bottle with splash top at the local antique store, filling it with my homemade bay rum was painstaking to say the least

    Nice! Looks right in place as an accessory to a straight razor.

    for sure, I also found a little two handled mug today that should make a sweet shave mug, now that I'm using a straight razor I'm always looking for that diamond in the rough hiding in an antique store

    Gentlemen:

    What a treat to apply aftershave lotion from such a rustic decanter. Well done, jakeinkalispell.

    Very nice! I really like the look of the old glass bottles and the unique stylings many have.

    jake,

    Nice score. You say you make your own bay rum? I like that. I've been trying to get my daughter, who made some pretty nice fragrances for her classmates in high school several years ago, to make a batch of bay rum for me.
