I've share before that I make Christmas ornaments out of my empty insulin bottles. Here is this year's edition!!! That is glitter inside of them.

How far can you go on 60,000 units?...these 60 bottles represent a small portion of my life.
so many breaths of air
so many heart beats
so many days
so much sadness
so much happiness
number 61 will just take me a little farther down the road.....

I have been collecting insulin bottles for some time...I don't know why, some days when I look at them I'm sad, but some days they seem like a accomplishment...again I don't know why. I save them.. :-)

Wow, this is so pretty. I am convinced for sure now to start collecting mine. I love the Christmas tree and since I am lazy when it comes to crafts, I think it is a great idea to make that tree shape. Now you have me thinking about all the holidays and different shapes that you could do for each one. Thanks!

That's pretty unique. Nice way to turn a medicine body into a positive. My first thought when I read your post was "Yuck, I don't want to think about insulin on christmas" But when I saw the picture I was uplifted.
