This pretty set not only lets you save a special message in a bottle, it also features extra places for flowers or little keepsakes. What would your message say? How would you accompany it?

It's a lovely design and I can think of many uses for it from the kitchen to the living room to the study. I like that the pine is reclaimed. I'm a little worried at the expense, especially for shipping as I can't image it is light...

I love this! It has so many uses. For flowers as shown, or maybe use the message in a bottle idea for a wedding to use on your special day.

This would make for a beautiful yet casual centerpiece for the dinner table!And love that you could leave sweet little notes for family members.

The base seems too thick. Not very decorative, I would try to find a different holder for this idea.

It is a romantic looking gift. The scroll really sets it off. I can see this one in a cozy cottage sitting on a windowsill!

I think it's a very sweet idea, but something that would not be used after the first month or so. Then it becomes just another item taking up space.

Sorry I'm not a fan of this at all. It's too rustic and plain.

Just say "no" to dust-collecting knick-knacks! You'd feel bad ever emptying it, so it's a one-time use. The base looks cheap. I could DIY this myself, but wouldn't. Why am I being so mean? I'm sorry.

Sweet in idea, rough in execution. The base doesn't really seem to fit with the idyllic nature of the message vials.

This looks like something I once made in my six grade wood shop class. The idea is sort of cute, but the design is seriously lacking.

Sweet idea, but bottles look cheap and the base is not attractive in this photo. Might look good in a log cabin???

I'm a sucker for anything that let's me write little messages to my husband. I love that this is created from reclaimed wood from old homes. Since we do rehabs of old homes, this kind of decor takes on special meaning.

This is super cute! I would use it as a little vase set in my apt. :) Maybe even hide little trinkets in it with a color theme each time.
Chantal

It's unique, rustic, and genuinely my style.. then why the thumbs down? The size is the big draw-back for me. With the base only being 8'' long and the glasses being more like test tubes... there isn't much you can put in them (1 or two little flowers maybe?). I'd love this on a larger scale, to act as a centerpiece for my rectangle dining room table. Also, it would be great if the base came in a variety of colors to complement different home decor.

This is really cute. I can picture it on table where people gather a lot. Members of the household can leave little secrets for each other.

Might look good in a country home. I am so not country. It may make a nice wedding centerpiece if it came in more colors and styles, but same concept.

I like the idea. I could see putting small pebbles and shells that I collect into the vials.
jaque
Vote: Thumbs up!
Love this idea!! A lot would depend on the price, though. If it was over $25 or $30, I would pass on it.
Jennifer

alena

Really cute but, but I don't think that it is that useful, the bottles are small and won't hold that much and the base would take up a fairly large amount of room to accommodate such a small amount of storage.

Bottles are timeless. I love being able to customize bottles and bottle gifts, these are a perfect little gift.

The components don't seem to match. I would rather see small crockery containers to match the weight of the base, or a wire or acrylic base to compliment the clear and simple lines of the vials.

Someone who's artistic enough to make something worthwhile from this kit, doesn't need a kit.

I have seen this on other websites but not like this. I like the bottle design but not fond of the base design.

I like the idea, just not the design. The bottom piece of wood looks so thick I think it takes away from the charm of the vials.

The old fashioned charm of the iconic message in a bottle has been taken to new heights. Beautifully preserved in wood from a century old home-who alone has its own stories to tell, then flanked one each side by matching bottles to personalize this lost tradition to your taste. What a wonderful gift for any occasion.

I really like this, I'm just not sure that I would buy it. It would depend on the price. It is super cute though.

Seems easy to toss together a couple of jars bought for pennies...I don't think this could be offered cheap enough to really sell.

I like this product, but I on't think I would buy it. It doesn't seem very useful.
