  • How to make a light bulb vase. Light Bulb Vase - Step 1

    Using your hot glue gun, dab three or four dots on the base so make sure its sits upright. Then fill with water and arrange your flowers! Enjoy!

I'm totally going to make this. I have two leopard geckos that need a heating lamp but eventually they blow out so I have all these light bulbs that just sit around and collect dust.

This is so cool and funky. You can even decorate the glass too. Happy

Good idea - some glass paints would look really pretty!

That, is so.. freaking.. cool. I've always known there had to be something that could come out of those old bulbs!
