 I was in a piddling mood yesterday so I kept myself busy by knocking out a quick little project that’s been knocking around in my head for a while, a set of accent lights for our balcony ##### **Materials:** * 1 - Set of LED “Poster” lights (*$1.50 - ‘Dollar General’*) * 2 - Packs of 6 Colored Ping Pong Balls (*$0.50 each, ‘Dollar General‘*) * Center punch, Icepick, or Scribe * Drill with a 3/16” Drill Bit * Hot Glue Gun  • First, using a scribe, I widened the small pinhole in each of ten ping pong balls. (*This takes the place of drilling a small pilot hole before drilling with 3/16" bit*)  • Next, I set each ball on a roll of electrical tape for stability & drilled a 3/16” hole in each. (*Fast speed works best for drilling something soft as plastic*)  • Then, I cleaned the frayed plastic from each hole using an X-acto knife. • Finally, I glued each light in its own ball. (*I screwed the color pattern up but they still turned out pretty good*) **NOTE:** There was a few steps I couldn’t take pictures of because my hands were full.
