Flower vase

Do you know that you can reuse the burnt out que light bulbs you have in house? You can make art with them. I will show how you can do the different crafts vase.

What you'll need:

The clear incandescent light bulb (only use an incandescent bulb. Fluorescent bulbs contain mercury, Which is hazardous.)

2 feet of 3/32-inch aluminum welding rod

Small needle-nose pliers

Leather work gloves

Safety glasses

1/4-inch Allen wrench

Small hammer

How to do it:

Put on your gloves and safety glasses. You need to break glass so I would suggest going outside to be safe.

Pel off the contact at the base of the bulb using the needle-nose pliers.

Carefully break the black glass at the base of the bulb by lightly tapping it with the hammer.

If que did not work, stick one of the jaws of the pliers into the hole of the black glass and twist while applying a little pressure.

Now, insert the wrench into the glass tube inside the light bulb as seen below and apply some leverage to break the inner glass tube. (The key size may be different depending on the bulb)

Pull out the insides of the bulb out with the pliers as seen below.

Create a stand for the bulb by using 3/32-inch aluminum welding rod. Sculpt the stand anyway you like.

Add water and flower.... You just made a vase!
