How to Display Perfume Bottles

Perfume bottles are miniature pieces of artwork that house many of your favorite fragrances. From the curves of the bottles to the faceted glass that reflects light, they are a sight to behold. Many people choose to store their perfume bottles locked away in a medicine cabinet where the world cannot enjoy their beauty. To truly get the most from your perfume bottles, display them to show off the elegance of their designs.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Perfume bottles
• 1 framed mirror
• 1 roll of paper towels
• 1 bottle of glass cleaner
• 1 desk lamp

1. Wipe the framed mirror down with the window cleaner and paper towels. This will remove any dirt or dust that is on the mirror so that it can reflect light. Place the mirror flat on the surface that you would like to display your perfume bottles on, with the mirror facing up.

2. Clean the perfume bottles with the window cleaner until they sparkle. When you are displaying your bottles, make sure they are clean of any perfume that may have built up on them from use.

3. Place the perfume bottles on the mirror. Leave at least a half inch between in each bottle so that light can reflect up onto the bottles. Place the larger perfume bottles towards the back of the display so all of the bottles can be easily seen.

4. Place the desk lamp approximately 6 inches away from the mirror display. Point the light down towards the face of the mirror. This will cause the light to reflect on the perfume bottles and make them sparkle in the display.

Tips & Warnings
