How to Make Bottle Bricks for Straw Bale Homes | Earthships | Eco Domes


Have you ever wondered how they make those bottle bricks you see in fantastic sustainable architecture like #earthships, straw bale houses and eco domes? Well it's not all that difficult and I'll show you how you can make bottle bricks out of your old glass bottles and jars for your own creative projects. These bottle bricks will not only make your projects super cool, but you'll be keeping these glass bottles from landing in a landfill somewhere, because glass is, at least in our home state of Arizona, no longer recyclable.
