I used to collect good-looking gin bottles. In preparation of moving to the new house, I was cleaning out my office cabinet and asked myself whether I should keep them. This bottle is the only survivor, and inspired me to try putting some of my favorite doodles onto it.

What started with a drawing ended up a glass house with 'real' windows, only waiting for a little LED light that will fit inside. It will sit in my bookcase, between the novels, to let the books that feel lonely know there's always someone watching out for them.
