Recycled lightbulb-light

I'm so thrilled with how lovely this little lightbulb vase came out! Inspired by the South African Elle Deco I decided to carefully saw the top of an old bulb with a handsaw... Wasn't as easy as I thought - seemed to take for ever to get through and after that it's still a bit of a mission to remove the inside of the bulb! But I do think it came out so beautifully in the end :)
I'm developing a green/recycled range for "WowZulu" with COP 17 coming up soon... Will probably work with these but then combined with bead work: maybe a delicate doily-like, white beaded cover around the bottom, or very simple - it hanging from a string of beads?!
