    Hi,

    I need glass bottles with seals for some homemade irish cream I'm giving as gifts this year. The Container Store has glass flasks that are too small. They also have large square glass bottles that could work but I was looking for something even more affordable. Does anyone have any ideas? I need about 12.

    Thanks so much.

    Try Cost Plus. Antique markets/junk shops usually also have a plethora of glass bottles for a pittance.

    American Science and Surplus has varieties of bottles, I don't know if they've got stuff big enough for what you want.

    My favorite source for all things odd is Lehman's Non-Electric. They have glass bottles with lids in the dairy section of the catalogue. You could also use your own bottles and just buy bottle caps and a capping device from them.

    My friend's grandmother makes homemade Irish cream and gives it out in swingtop Grolsch bottles with the labels removed. Do they still sell Grolsch in swingtops? Can you stand to drink a case of it? :)

    I would also check out any shops that sell beer and wine making supplies.

    Ikea had some nice looking ones. I picked up Quart jars there. I find the quality to be decent as well.
