These beautiful and creative ideas for DIY lighting can inspire environmentally friendly and original home furnishings. These lighting ideas follow the principles of upcycling: reuse old items you no longer need instead of throwing them away, and turn them into something brighter.
DIY lights made from jam jars
One especially useful idea is to give old jam jars a new purpose. These lights are very easy to make yourself using jam jars. You can turn them into a chandelier by installing bulbs inside, or hang them as a garden garland for outdoor lighting.

DIY lights made from other glass objects
Jars are not the only option for making your own lights. Old items such as pitchers and bottles can also be customized into original chandeliers. Test tubes offer an especially creative option: a chandelier made from them looks unusual and can be varied in many ways. Fill them with colored liquids for a rainbow effect, or add water and small plants to create a hanging garden in the living room.
