I was doing a tip run today and right across the yard I saw someone walking towards the glass skip with these bad boys.
I think they are early 1900s ambrosia carboys. The problem is I already have a carboy terrarium and now having 4 of them might be to much. Ive been trying to think what else to do with them, any ideas?

I will make a terrarium out of 1 or 2 of them, im just trying to think what else I can do with them.
Easy, make a carboy aquarium! Add a little air tube down the neck and you’ll have a paradise for shrimp in no time.
Other than that if you don’t have space I’m sure you could sell them.
How long are your tweezers!?
No for real though – I never manage to do anything well with this shape. How do you handle the narrow neck?
I used something like [this](https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/mastercraft-flexible-mechanical-pick-up-tool-24-in-0581657p.html?utm_content=shopping&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=1531561578&gclid=CjwKCAjwiNXFBhBKEiwAPSaPCTtWjtQC7wEubE-Mqjv-4537P54PBsJ7eEFo7rcf4aKeoRzivs1ycxoCcTkQAvD_BwE#store=263) to plant my demijohn
Those look JUST like the terrariums in the Space Boy comics!
Very jealous. Nice find!
I have one half full of wine corks.
We’re still working on it.

I made a water feature out of a small one by drilling a hole in it and attaching it to a water pump! The water is clear now, I just haven’t taken another photo.
