Most of you probably already know this, but I had an "Ah-ha!" moment trying to make perfume bottles from jewelry findings. I always had trouble keeping the beads and findings straight when trying to align them. I finally realized that I could stick a little pin through the openings while the glue sets and the bottles came out perfectly straight! The pin is stuck in a piece of cardboard, but styrofoam would probably work better.

Aww yes... took me a few bottles to realize this too! And they even make fancy pin heads which you can use to ornate the tops with. That way you can glue the head pin in with the beads and snip off the bottom. I love your selection of end caps that you are using. Beautiful bottles!!!!
