Two weeks ago, I posted about placing three antique bottles in an ultraviolet light chamber I fashioned from an extra garbage bin in my garage. The idea is to push the process of turning the glass purple. A few online sources I found suggested constantly bathing the bottles in ultraviolet light for four weeks would produce a lot of color.
Today, I have posted a photograph
of the bottles before I placed them in the chamber and another photograph, for
comparison, of the bottles following two weeks in the light.
The difference is, at best,
faint.
No worries. The way I have this figured; I can tolerate bottles
and light in my garbage bin for weeks.
Months, if need be. I am in it
for the purple.
