I wanted to experiment with some old glass insulators and see if i could make them into some shelf accent lights. I think the project was a great success. See the link on the main page to see all the pics and expect many more in the future.

The base is a simple turning with a burn stripe to break up the glue point, it is made out of shop scrap mesquite and the light is a stick on battery operated LED light i got at Lowes. Unfortunately the light is expensive like $8 but it will last for a LONG time on the battery. Its located with the night lights in the store.
