Craft: Recycled Light Bulb Christmas Ornaments

Recycled Light Bulb Christmas Ornaments

Use old burned out light bulbs for this craft.

Materials

Light bulbs to recycle
Acrylic paints
Yarn and Crochet hook
or
Baby sock
Glue gun and glue
Ribbon or wire for hanger
Decorations as desired.

Directions

Wash and dry, use acrylic paints, paint light bulb white, let dry about 25 minutes.

Paint on face. While face is drying I crochet the hat for it out of yarn scraps, if you don't crochet you can use a baby sock, it is just as cute.

Hot glue hat on, hot glue ribbon or wire whatever you are going to use to hang it, hot glue decorations on the hat. I use clear glitter glue on the face to look like snow, these are so cute, I had to show people it was a light bulb, lol.

Editor's Note: Use incandescent bulbs instead of compact fluorescent bulbs for this craft. CFL bulbs contain mercury and can be hazardous when broken. They should be appropriately recycled instead.
