Recycle Reminder Lamp from upcycled Water Bottle

Step 7Your finished

Your finished
Your LED Water Bottle lamp shall provide you with hours of illuminated delight and will transform any darkened room into a aesthetical wonderland.
Not only is it pleasing to the eye, it also provides ample light for any home DIY project.
The fully shrouded exterior means no worries when it comes to bumps and knocks.


I hoped you enjoyed this project and bare in mind that the possibilities are endless when it comes to recycling.
No valuable bottle reaches my recycling at home. They are immediately washed/labels removed and stacked according to size.
They are then harvested for the raw materials.
They are an excellent medium to exploit for a variety of ingenious projects.

I hope you are all inspired to create your own bottle piece of ingenuity. Good Luck!!
