Make a homemade lamp with recycling bottles

Creating battery-powered lamps at home is a creative way to recycle, and at the same time entertain ourselves while doing crafts. This is an activity that even the smallest members of the household can do, with proper supervision. The best thing is that you will need very few materials that are easy to obtain, you may even already have them at home.

Materials and tools you will need

Making lamps with recycled materials can result in a wide variety of results, everything will depend on your creativity and the needs you have. You can create flashlights for alternating current, or make them independent of the power outlet and add a couple of batteries to the design.

Here we leave you an idea to carry out this second design that uses two AA batteries, although you can also skip this step and add a cable with a plug or pin.

It is possible that most of these materials you already have at home and those that you don’t will be very easy to obtain. Make sure you look through your things carefully, so we can help the environment by recycling what we already have while we carry out this project.

Steps to make a flashlight

And that’s it, you will notice that when you close the bottle the batteries settle and this is the indication that your lamp is working, you can do it in less than ten minutes and easily.
