  • @julien1560
    @julien1560 2 роки тому +20

    Great idea! I'd use that tape inside each bowl to keep the string of lights suspended within each "bowl".. which may ultimately project a more "full" light effect to the whole structure.

    • @merryworld4776
      @merryworld4776 2 роки тому +1

      @Julie N I'd do that also. Also, I just mentioned to my husband, to use tape to hold the bowls together because sometimes those battery powered lights don't last very long. With the tape, at least, you could pry bowls apart to replace batteries, etc. Finished product looks nice, though.
      Happy holidays!

      The sparkling effect is a result of the light reflecting off the angles in the faux crystal designs on the bowls.

    I made ornaments out of those bowls. I added super small led wire lights that are powered by a battery pack and pulled all the lights through a small hole I burned on the bottom of one bowl and then glued two bowls together. Very easy. This is way more involved that what I made. I love it!! Maybe I’ll do something like this next. It looks amazing.

    Fun! I’ve been using large glass vases from flowers I received. I fill them with Christmas ornament balls and tinsel and use tiny copper wire lights in between and let the battery pack hang outside out of sight. Then I find a matching, gorgeous, glittery ribbon I have saved and tie a bow in front. Turn on the lights and voila! Very elegant lighted Christmas decor!
