- I upcycle a cool looking empty bottle into a stylish lamp, using a two free bottles and kits I bought off Amazon for £17 each. I was really pleased with the results!!
The lamp holder and pre wired plug I used is below:

"Wow" fantastic 👏 👌 😍 great job!!!
Goo gone would also take off the sticky stuff quickly.
I want to do mine now; I shall save this video so I can go back revise/ peruse and then get making. Thankyou "Dad's skills".
Thank you for watching!
Perfect instructions...Thank you!
Excellent, cheers Jackie!! Have a good one 👍
Very nice! 7:46 pm
Cool!!!
WD-40 works awesome at getting sticker glue off as well.
Cool video bud
Cheers 😀😀
Thanks for showing this. I’ll give it a go on a Plymouth Gin bottle 😉
Go for it!! Good luck 😀
Furniture polish quickly removes stick residues.
Also Isopropyl Alcohol - and it's as cheap as chips!
Looks amazing 👏 Just ordered a wiring loom , drill bit and finished my bottle of Makers mark 👀🤯🤣 Will deffo wait till sober to do this though 🤣 Thanks buddy 🙌
😂good luck!!
Love these 👍
love it
I work in a bottle company and what we do when we mess up with the label just peel it off rub it down with rubbing alcohol wipes comes right off good luck
Cool tip, ta
Always use the correct tools for the job, side cutters should never be used as a spanner and it would be easier to tighten the bung when it is in situ
Hi. Love this project, definitely will give it a try. Can you give me some advice please? I am up cycling a bird house and want to make it into a lamp. Is that safe do you think? What kind of fitting will I need?
Hi, thanks for watching. I think that should be fine, you probably need something like this - amzn.to/45041de
Lighter fuel. Will also lift glue off completely.
We need lamps for our apartment. This looks like a great idea!
They look great what's the info for the wiring kit from Amazon.
I’ve tried to put it in the description, you may have to copy and paste it. Cheers
@@dadskillz brilliant I'll have a look.
@@jasonupton6588 cool, good luck with it 👍👍
I use creamy peanut butter, comes right off.
to get the label off.
Rookie error: the dregs of alcohol in the bottle would've got rid of the sticky labels licketty-split 🙂
Nice 👍👍👌👌
Thank you 😀😀
What exact fitting did you get off of amazon? I’m not sure which ones will fit the Edison bulbs you used at the end. Love the video, great work
You need a bc22 lamp holder for those bulbs
Apologies if i've missed this in the video, what drill bit have you used here?
Great video - Thank you!
Hi, I just used a generic tile and glass bit from screwfix. Cheers for watching
How do you know what wires go where like how do you tell the difference between the live and the ground wire . Is this colour system universal
Hi, I don’t know what part of the world you’re from but in Europe and uk the system is the same, so earth is yellow and green, brown is live and blue is neutral. Not sure what it is in USA. For the lamp just make sure the metal fitting is earthed so it’s safe and then in this instance it doesn’t matter which way round you put the live and neutral.
Is there a name for the piece you placed in the bottle and tightened up so it snug in the bottle top? I've ordered things on Amazon and have not seen the kit you used. Your help is greatly appreciated.
Hi, the kit I used is something like this: amzn.to/3R4rSRH
But it sounds like you need the bung, but you may need to measure to make sure it will be ok: amzn.to/3ClVsha
I’ve not long ago made another bottle lamp vid that may be of interest too. Hope it goes well for you. Cheers for watching!!
Really can’t see what you are doing with the wires and that’s most important.
I’m sorry
Do you have to sodder the wire into the white thing or just screw it in
Screw it in
What size bung is it ??
19-21 mm
@@dadskillz thanks 👍
Hi, looking to convert a larger bottle with a internal diameter of 27mm, is there a kit for these?
Thanks
@@markcassidy7961 screw cap or cork ?
Very nice, thank you! But please use a mask when drilling into glass as it is basically silica, which is not good for your lungs...
