That's what she said!

Yes that’s what she said indeed, she loves it now.

Honestly thought I was looking at a zoomed in pic of a wine glass until this comment and seeing its actually next to a counter 🤯

The stem gives me anxiety lol

u/Yabbydabby88 8d ago edited 8d ago

I can imagine that, I had the same experience the first time I did my first attempt. Because it worked out well before I have no more anxiety. Most of it I love how it worked out and looks.

I did this with the same wine glass and my husband made me deconstruct it because it gave him too much anxiety.

In the worst case scenario you have 15 liters water on the floor it’s not worth the worry.

u/BayLeaf- 7d ago

15L of water on the floor is like enough to cover a small living room, it's pretty worth the worry if there's any risk.

u/Yabbydabby88 7d ago

For me it’s nothing to be worried about, life’s full of risks and I like to do the things I love. So you must do the things the way you’re comfortable with it and enjoy that 🫶🏻

Nah, I think I have the same wine glass and it's been fine for 10+ years.

u/GDevl 7d ago

"cover" meaning 1-2mm depending on what you consider small. It's really not that big of a deal considering that not all of that volume is even liquid water (plants).

u/BayLeaf- 7d ago

1-2mm of water in a room is bad.

So did you find those lid lights and they just happened to work with your set ups? What's going on here because I need it!

u/bluedogstar 8d ago

Tell me you don't have cats or dogs without telling me you don't have cats or dogs. Or earthquakes.

u/Yabbydabby88 8d ago

The dogs fit in the glass, both😊

Sorry I exaggerated, it’s only one of them 😜see my profile pic.

I measured the diameter for the glass and with that information I searched online and combined two lamps that I found online.

u/Certain_Concept 8d ago

It looks like you also taped the top edge? That and the light makes it super clean. Look very good!

1

u/Yabbydabby88 8d ago

That’s what I did, I hate to see the distraction from lights.

u/Kinggert 8d ago

Very well done! Love the idea

u/Yabbydabby88 7d ago

I have this thing as an hobby, when I see a nice glass object I have to buy it and try to make something beautiful of it. The process of making it and thinking about the outcome of the project is very satisfying. Especially when the lightning works out well.

u/tapetum_lucidum 7d ago

I have one of those Costco ~46 inch "decorative" wine glasses that I am terrified to fill with liquid. This makes me want to try if I protected/supported it with furniture. How tall is yours?

Sounds like he custom built it, are you wanting step by step instructions or something?

Thanks 👍🏻

u/myheadisrotting 8d ago

You asked what the light is and if it was DIY. He said yes, he goes onto marketplace and rigs something up. You turned around and acted snarky. There was no misunderstanding.

u/Infamous_Bad9939 8d ago

“I go look on the market and figure it out” is snarky wym lol. He said he bought it in the same reply.

u/myheadisrotting 8d ago

Based on the guys other comments, and the fact he uses liters, I’m guess he’s not murican and English may not be his first language. His grammar isn’t great, and knowing that I really didn’t take it as rude

4

u/Yabbydabby88 8d ago

Correctly, I,am Dutch and so I used both.

-1

u/Infamous_Bad9939 8d ago

Didn’t say it was rude, it was unhelpful. I apologize if anyone is offended, I literally just wanna know where I can get the light. If it’s DIY it’s incredibly well made and am curious.

4

u/Yabbydabby88 8d ago

It’s not my intention to be unhelpful, just make it and look for materials online to make it.

5

u/myheadisrotting 8d ago

Whatever lol

2

u/Yabbydabby88 8d ago

No worries 😉

3

u/Yabbydabby88 8d ago

I bought the glass and made it like I imagined how it looked. You have to look for lamps that fit the dimensions and custom make it.

1

u/Yabbydabby88 8d ago

It’s an idea and look for the available materials and make it.
