Easter Egg LED Lamp

I had two fluorescent lights blow out this week, so I took them apart ....of course!

So I put LED Tea Lights in Tea and Sake cups that my wife Laurie had thrown, and faster than a Bunny; Egg Lamps!
Happy Easter!

Step 1 Removing the Bulb

Wearing gloves I removed the first Bulb, it came off really easy as if the glue had melted!

You can make it even controllable with RGB LED Lights inside the bulb.

Wife loved it!.

SJ, Thank you , My wife Laurie was one reason I made these, we used to burn real candles in the house, but went to LED's a few years back. The LED's are nice but the need to be inside something to really "Shine"!

Wow. This is very eggy. :P

[kentkb]

Yeah, It turned out that way. I had held on to the glass after the bulb burned out thinking there may be a use.

Even though I was expecting eggs, like real eggs, this is much more excellent. Amazing result, the Instructable was well written out, the pictures are great. Keep up the great work, I'll see if I can do this or not. And I like that Makers: thing that you have. +5/5 stars. Go eggs!

Thank you for your comment. Something is not trash until there is no other use for it.... This was a fun one to Make too!

GM,
The LED tea lights came from Walgreens Drug store:

They are a little Hackable too.
Thank you.
