    I think that is awesome, I am thinking of doing the same with a ball and have it blow around in the garden as a feature !

    Great idea! This would look even more amazing if you added an LED to each of the bottle lids and a small 3v barrel! You could make it so the LEDs only come on when the bottle is screwed in all the way.

    Hi!

    Yes, thats a great idea. In fact, this project is the second part of a lamp made out of 150 plastic bottles. Thanks!
