Design Tip of the day! Utilizing old light bulbs for the Holidays.
Whenever a light bulb burns out. Save them! Don’t throw them away in the trash! They may seem useless now, but come Holiday time, you can transform these useless things into something beautiful and elegant. There are so many little Christmas projects you can do with recycled materials. Something easy to use is recycled light bulbs. You can hang them on the tree and do your own ornaments!
My favorite one to make is painting the Grinch and doing other kind of figurines and characters onto them. It really helps bring out the tree and it’s not hard or expensive to do at all. Besides painting your own designs onto the light bulb you can also fill them with greenery inside to give it some more natural look to it! It’s very simple and quick to do. Here's how!
For Materials you will need
- The light bulb
- Newspaper
- Various color of paint depending on what you wish to make
- Glue/flour
- Hot glue gun
- Colored papers.
