It’s Friday night and i’m feeling crafty. I was inspired by a light, well, more specifically a lightbulb that burned out today. WARNING: do not do this with CFL bulbs, if they break they could release mercury, I am using an incandescent bulb! 

After creating less than a palm full of trash over the past two months, I didn’t want to let all my effort go to waste (pun intended) with a lightbulb so I wanted to find a way to upcycle it. I started to think of the waste I have already produced as well as the light bulb and decided on, what I feel to be, the PERFECT way to upcycle a few things that I could have easily deemed useless: a holiday ornament!

I used a lightbulb, all of the salvageable produce tags I had put away as waste, the wire from a produce twist tie, and a glue stick that I had since I made a poster presentation in college four years ago to create a colorful ornament!

Disclaimer: Yes, I know this looks extremely DIY but I feel that makes it that much more special! 

I am so excited to see what other DIY/upcycle projects I can think of before the holidays!
