Good morning bottle lovers!
Over the past few days I have been working on making an inventory database of all of our bottles and other ocean finds and I thought it may be helpful to share what I'm doing. But first... a teaser

Some of the bottles lined up on the living room floor after being photographed and tagged
I was hoping that we could share our methods on keeping track of our treasure, and possibly offer some help with new ideas. I am using Bento, a Filemaker program made for Mac. My fields for each bottle are; Bottle ID, Approximate Date, What is it?, Dimensions, Front Image, Bottom Image, and Area of Interest. I've also left a place for notes on each bottle and an area to attach related files such as pdf's, emails, or anything else I come across that can be saved to that bottle's file.
I hope this can actually be useful, I wish I had found something like it when I started on this project!
