The United States is upgrading traffic lights to a more efficient technology, leaving these old glass lenses obsolete. They are now being tossed into landfills across the country. If you could scavenge them out of the trash, what might you do with recycled traffic lights?
Would you make table ware?
Would you create a bird feeder?
Would you design a hanging pendant light?
This is what I came up with:
Break.
Tumble.
Drill. Assemble. What are your ideas?
Oh Em Gee!!! Awesome idea... I would probably use it as a centerpiece... with candles on it and some marbles :)

Thank you for your comment! I will go check out your blog right now! Have a great night.
DeleteWow! These are great! I really like the idea of upcycling the lenses. Why wouldn't you?! I think I would do the light fixture myself. Very cool.
ReplyDeleteAren't they fabulous? I almost got those when we were constructing our home, but alas, they were too expensive for our budget.
DeleteWow, so many cool things to do with a traffic light! I love what you came up with, very modern and wearable!
ReplyDeleteThank you! They're actually quite light, too.
