Great. I have things in Russian language. I love using a different language text for backgrounds and odd pieces to add an air of mystery to a piece since you can't read the language. Most have interesting pictures. Also maps in Russian if you are interested. Will do private swaps too.

How do you get the labels off of bottles and still keep them in tact? Would love to swap with this group some day. Still a newbie, but I'm watching.

Some bottle labels come off very easily just by cutting and unwrapping. Others take some soaking and they'll come right off. Last resort, you can take a knife to it and gently try removing if it doesn't destroy it. I've even retrieved some from the bottom of the dishwasher all intact. Then I dry, press in a book and ready to go.
