My newest solar light fixture Tinkerbell in an India looking item

This is the solar light fixture.  The bottom is a candlestick holder.  I drilled a hole all the way through it so I could put a threaded rod through it.  I used this rod to attach the India looking candle holder.  I added a piece from a lamp on the bottom and also on the inside so I had tinkerbell up higher.  I added some dust diamond glitter (pixie dust).  The solar light is on top.

This is a close up.  I also put a red christmas drum ornament which I drilled a hole through and installed it on top of the lamp piece.  Tinkerbell is standing on the drum.

I tried to get a picture of it lit up but the solar light needs a recharge from the sun.

Sponge bob square pants theme in a plastic fish bowl

This is the solar light fixtures made from a lamp and plastic fish bowl.  The cap on top is a piece from a lamp, and a solar light on top.

This is a close up of the inside.  I hope this gives you some ideas.  I had to add a piece from a water bottle on the inside which fit over top of the air tube in the middle so the light could reflect further on the inside.

2 new solar light fixtures made from old lamps and coach lights

This is one of the solar light fixtures I made.  The bottom of it was an old lamp, I added a coach light on top with a scenery.  On the top is a solar light.  I will also post a close up of both the fixtures.

This is the second one.  Now I will show you the close ups.

You can see the solar light on top.  On the inside is blue sand, a princess, fake roses, some fake pearls.  This looks beautiful lit up.

This is the second one, you can see Snow White on the inside, blue sand, fake pearls and fake roses.  I also added some sparkle type glitter that looks like diamonds when it's lit up.

A solar light fixture made from a shihtzu dog lamp and a dog treat container

This is the solar light fixture.  The bottom was a lamp which I took all the electric out of.  On the top is a plastic jar which holds dog treats, I cut a circle threw the bottom of the jar which fits over the size of the threaded part of the lamp, I then used the nut to hold them together.

This is a close up of the top.  This is what is on the inside of the plastic jar, a fairy, fake pearls, black shimmery sand, a christmas tree.  I also added some diamond shimmery sprinkles.  The solar light is glued to the top, this lights up at night.

This is a close up of the bottom.  I hope this gives you some ideas.  Makes a great night light!

A solar light I made from an old ashtray stand that looked like an old pot belly stove

This is the solar light fixture I made.  As you can see the bottom is an old ash tray stand which I painted gold and blue.  On the top I glued down a plastic fish bowl, I use E6000 for my gluing jobs it works GREAT!  You can purchase this glue from Walmart in the crafting area.  On the inside of the fishbowl I put a scenery of a midevel times knight on a horse which has a sword and is fighting the dragon which is in front of him.  The next picture is a close up of the top.  On the very top I glued down a piece from an old lamp fixture which I also painted.  On the very top is the top of a single solar light which you can be purchased at Walmart for 97 cents.  You can make this with any scenery inside, it lights up at night, I wish you could see how nice it looks lit up.  I also sprinkled some glitter that looks like diamond dust on the inside, it shimmers on the inside.

This is a close up of the top.

The 1800's dollhouse

In this picture these are the columns that I built for this house.  Looking at this picture you can see what I made them out of.  I'm going to be painting the columns.

I decided to take decorative Popsicle sticks and install them at different lengths for the top as you can see in the photo.  The next photo you will see a close up.

I also added some scrabble squares from the game as you can see.  I also added two layers of different size wood across the top of the Popsicle sticks to give it a finished look.

I used a container that held cheese and crackers from the store to make flower boxes.  I cut the container length wise and installed both on pieces of wood.  It makes it easier to glue onto the house.

This is what it looked like from the top looking down into it.  All I need to do is add the styrofoam and fake flowers.  I'm also going to spray paint them.

This is what the chimney looked like in the beginning.  Next picture is what it looked like after I repainted it.

This is the repainted chimney.

This is what the house looks like now.  At the very end I will post what it looked like when I first received it.

Another view.

This is the inside.

This is one of the bedrooms

This is the second bedroom.

This is the kitchen area,all I need to do is build some cabinets and appliances.

This is the parlour area.  I'm also going to be building 2 fireplaces for this house. 

This was the front of the dollhouse.

This was the back.  You can also see the chimney lying in the front and pieces that were broken off the roof.  Note there were no windows in the front or a door.

Did some more to the 1800's doll house

I put the windows in and the door in this picture.  I also painted it blue.

I put scrap booking paper on the inside which I purchased from hobby lobby.  

On the ceilings I added a beautiful picture off the Internet.

This is another photo of one of the ceilings.

In this picture you can see I'm adding a front porch on the front.  The first thing I did was add plywood under the house and extended out the front.  I then put pieces of wood from a wooden placement on the floor, makes a great wooden floor.  I also added a strip of wood above the door area and window area, this strip of wood is going to be used to hold up the roof overhang for the porch.  I also added a picture on the peak area that makes it look like there is a window.

This is a picture of the inside at this point.  I put trim work around the windows, around almost to the top of the wall, base molding. I also added crown molding on the very top.  The top of the walls above the wallpaper I painted colors that match the wallpaper colors.

This is one of the bedrooms at this point.

This is another bedroom.

This is the kitchen area.

This is the parlour area.

I'm working on a dollhouse dated in the 1800's Remodel time

This is what the inside of the dollhouse looked like when I received it.

This is what the front of the dollhouse looked like when I received it.

This is one of the sides.

The first thing I did was fix the roof and added some openings for windows and a door in the front.  I also filled in the cracks with a mixture of wood glue and toilet paper.  When these two items are mixed together it makes a good thing for filling cracks and doing repairs.  This dries harder than a rock.

This is one of the sides of the house.

This is the other side.

I took off all the wallpaper that someone added to the inside.

This is what the roof looks like, I gave it a texture on the roof with my wood glue and toilet paper mixture.  One of the glass windows in this house was broken so I replaced it with the glass from a photo frame.  The wood part of that frame I am using for making two fireplaces for this house.  I will post pictures as I remodel this house.  Keep watching my blogs.
