This Instructable is actually three separated projects. I will show how to brink life in dead things. All the projects first are done and then I decided to make them Instructables. All are very simple, needs medium experience with some electronics and tool usage. All are product of one afternoon and I made one after other. Aim was to clear out my workbench from dead stuff and some of them to throw away but actually all these gave me nice ideas.
As general material I use LEDs and Soldering iron, some wires and enough time.
The three Instructable are in the physical order I made them.

Signing UpStep 11...Use your Glasses to see better...
Nothing more obvious. Yes but there's a hint. I have about twenty glasses. Due to a surgical operation I did when I was child I need to change glasses every year! So I have a bunch of useless glasses and also same number of frames. I was ready to throw away these but then I had the idea to use one pair us a torch light to read better.
So I get out the glasses from the framework and I added 2 leds Ultra bright White, 2 LED cases some wire, a AA battery pack, and an on/off switch. Also some wire covers to isolate the joints.
The LED case is really heavy. I choose this for better result but is a bit of trouble to maintain it at any branch of the framework, specially mine which is very thin. I use a bigger nut to support it and a tighter to give full support. With the nut I succeeded the angle i wanted of the light. I wanted each LED looks about 10 degrees more left and more right like in figure

Evilmadscientist did something similar to the urchin lamps, but with a "throwie" basis.
