    I need some help in choosing which bottle looks better. The left has the pattern (heat) printed, while the right one is laser etched. Any feedback is very much welcomed!

    Right, 100% . Left is undeniably tacky, sorry. (I'd even say right was better with no etchings at all, or simpler ones)

      Then what's the difference - why pick it?

      Well the left one has a very visible pattern, hence I picked it.

        Oh I see you meant you didn't even see the etching on the right. Haha thought you meant the very visible etching on the left, and I was confused..

          I like the etched one! The heat printed one looks too busy on the brown background and with that wallpaper. I kind of like the idea in another comment of etched flowers below and heat printed "B" above.

            I like the left (guess Im tacky according to the comments, lol) but rhe etched will last the life of the bottle. The heat printed stuff comes off over time.

              While I do like the pop of the left one more, will it stand up to repeated washing? Or will the pattern wear away or rub off?

              I'm more inclined to like a laser etched glass because the pattern doesn't wear away.

              Overall, I don't know that I love the look of the brown container itself, though.

              I suppose some wear off will occur in time, but the pattern should not rub off despite repeated washing at least for a few years. Then again, you're right that the laser etched bottle will remain the same forever. I went with an amber glass because the formula inside may be unstable and react if UV hits it.

                If you're developing these, it's not the pattern that puts me off, something about the whole thing gives me the ick. I think it's the bottle size to tap size ratio. Re the image, I'd prefer plain / minimal.

                I really get you, but I didn't really have much room into choosing the tap. This is the smallest, decently looking food-grade spigot I found readily available. And, if the bottle was larger, it would become an even bigger tripping hazard than it already is. I still have to find a way to prevent it from easily fall down from something like a shower niche.

                  They both look like poison dispensers. I like the non print one better, though.

                  Well, yes, the old poison bottles had an apothecary-style design.

                    I get it with parts availability and design. I wasn't trying to be a dick, I was just saying.

                    Regarding safety in a shower, is there anyway to hang it? Some kind of noose with a hanging hook.

                    Good luck with your creation.

                      No worries. I am actually looking forward to any feedback. And I also thought that it may be better to find some way to hang it, although it does need to be both be functional and look good.
