Grandmas are good at everything: sewing, reading fairy-tales, bringing up grandchildren, cooking, cleaning the house, washing the dishes and even … creating villages. Of course, I am joking, your grandma will definitely never ever try to do something like this.

Grandma Made Village Out of Bottles

Between 1956 and 1981 Tressa “Grandma” Prisbrey built a real Bottle Village, that is a place where tens of thousands of bottles are in mortar. The village looks very unusual and attracts numerous tourists to make pictures in front of bottles.

In the village created by Ms. Prisbrey there is a hobby, constructive creative and a couple of buildings that used to be houses. Unfortunately, this village was badly damaged in a 1994 earthquake. However, the village was repaired and right now it attracts attention of people as a magnet.
