Here's a quick and easy way to add a little sparkle to a dark corner of your home.
I had some old twinkle lights with no
where to use them.
Our flocked tree is pre-lite, and we
use net lights in our bushes outside.
So...I bunched up the lights and put
them in an old lantern-like jar.
Talent right?
I should add that the top of
the jar is wide open, so any heat
generated by the lights escapes
through the top of the jar.
I'm still on my quest to clean out
closets and the garage, so these
items were going to be donated
unless I found a use for them.
Use it up
Wear it out
Make it do
or
You do without
Love the easy stuff.

ReplyDeleteLove it! If I can find a string small enough I am going to put a set in our lantern, because there is a plug behind it.

This is very cute, I've done this in my bathroom, adding some pot pouri and the heat of the lite makes it smell great.
ReplyDeletethat's a great idea to add scent. I'll try it.
