I use a water bottle also, then throw it away. No need for beautiful.

I saw a suggestion somewhere to use a non dairy creamer bottle b/c it has a cute little spout on it. It works great! I'm using a little one-waiting for my DH to use up a large one. Cute story gows with this-MyDH came into my sewing room for something and he picks up the creamer bottle and demanded-What's this doing up here? kinda angry like. I sad it has water in it silly for my iron-why else would it be in here for? it's not like I'm sneaking it! he got a sheepish look on his face and just said OH.

At a retreat this fall a lady was filling her iron from a water bottle with the pull up top for drinking. She just pulled up the top and turned it over and filled her iron. I couldn't believe I had not thought of this as I always have water bottles around.
