DIY Light Bulb Vase

I found a perfect use for those seemingly unusable old light bulbs. It's an easy DIY craft that's quick and only requires 3 items.

You need:
a light bulb (or many) of any shape or size
pliers
and gardening wire.

First you need to remove the little silver layer on the bottom of the light bulb.  Work the pliers under the layer to create a little lip, and then peel it off with the pliers.

Now you have to remove the black cap from the bottom of the light bulb. Be extremely careful, as it is glass.   I used the pliers to tap the rest of the black glass off the bulb.  Do this outdoors or over a hard surface so you can sweep up the bits of glass.

Once the black glass was removed get the little glass tube and wiring on the inside of the bulb out . Simply tap it with the pliers and it should break right off.

Now you have an empty light bulb to work with. I suggest adding fabric to the metal rim, then add flowers and water and hang with gardening wire, enjoy!
