Recycling Jack Daniel’s whiskey bottles into cool new lamps, is fun and with our wiring kit, it’s so easy you can finish your wiring project in only 5 minutes. Easy-peasy!
If you’re planning to DIY a bottle lamp, we have a solution that doesn’t imply drilling holes in your bottles. That’s great for three reasons:
1: Drilling a hole into a bottle without cracking the entire glass open is a work of patience and skill.
2: If your bottle is a collectible, with our no-drill bottle lamp kit you can make sure your treasure won’t be damaged.
3: You can fill your bottle with something, like coffee beans, without worrying it will spill out.
Our no-drill bottle lamp kit comes with a pre-assembled UL-Listed socket with an on/off switch and wiring. Because the cord comes out of the side of the socket, not the bottom threading through like typical lamps, you can use a closed container as a base like a bottle, a jar, a vase or any other beautiful glass item that you have around the home or found in a thrift store.
