LED bulbs are far more efficient than traditional incandescent or even the newer <a href=\"http:\/\/greenlivingideas.com\/2015\/02\/19\/the-true-cost-of-light-bulbs-led-cfl-incandescent\/\">CFL bulbs<\/a>, so you save money and energy, which helps everyone. Plus, as the technology advances, LED has emerged as the most versatile lighting option. It offers many fun and unique ways to light your home, from tunable white light that lets you mimic the rise and fall of the sun to color-changing bulbs that can turn your home into a disco party or Serengeti sunset with the touch of a button.<\/p>\n<p>If you are already on the LED train, the chances are you\u2019re switching out your old incandescents for new LEDs at a rapid rate. Here\u2019s a fun way to upcycle your old lightbulbs by turning them into mini vases! We embarked on this project after one bulb died in our bathroom light fixture, and we decided to replace both bulbs with LEDs. Rather than throw the incandescents away, I turned them into tiny terrariums. These unique, living vases make great holiday gifts, as well as fun Christmas tree ornaments.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19380\" src=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-2.jpg\" alt=\"supplies you'll need\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-2-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-2-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-2-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-2-186x186.jpg 186w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Supplies and tools you\u2019ll need<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Incandescent light bulbs<\/li>\n<li>Screwdriver<\/li>\n<li>Tweezer<\/li>\n<li>Needle-nose pliers<\/li>\n<li>Goggles<\/li>\n<li>Gloves<\/li>\n<li>Accessories for your terrarium (we used sand, moss and air plants)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Safety first!

What you fill it with is only limited by size and your imagination! You could just fill it with a little water and some small wildflowers, attach a ribbon and be done. But, as it\u2019s winter and wildflowers are a little scarce, we decided to turn ours into terrariums. These are low-maintenance living gardens that you build using air plants, a little bit of sand and some preserved moss.<\/p>\n<p>As long as you don\u2019t use live moss or soil and keep it in partial light (not in the dark or full sunlight), your tiny terrarium should live happily with just a spritz from a spray bottle once a week. Air plants can get most of their nutrients from the air. They don\u2019t have a root system, so they require only a little water, making them perfect for small glass orbs.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-6.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19384\" src=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-6.jpg\" alt=\"fill with sand\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-6.jpg 640w, https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-6-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-6-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-6-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-6-186x186.jpg 186w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>First, use a funnel to add some sand to the light bulb to provide drainage.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-7.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19385\" src=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-7.jpg\" alt=\"add plants\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-7.jpg 640w, https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-7-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-7-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-7-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/BulbVase_Image-7-186x186.jpg 186w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Then add some preserved moss and the air plant (also known as tillandsia) in each bulb with tweezers.
