!!! Light BuLBs !!!

Here are some great ideas on how to recycle those old light bulbs. I could not find anything on recycling LED bulbs. Please share your fun and lovely projects! :)

#1

PLAYFUL = Light bulbs are hollowed out and filled with rocks, 

water, and air plants to make playful terrariums.

FRESH and CLEAN = Old light bulbs can be placed in a hurricane vase to create a fresh and clean look. If your light bulbs are not clear you can take them apart and clean them.
