When I'm feeling crafty, I love a project that is quick and easy. Think... small. I've really been into mosaics lately. A small container, lovely sheets of stained glass waiting to be broken and snapped, a little MAC glue, and I'm off and running. After the grouting is finished, I have to reach for a string of craft lights to light the project up.
This 15-light strand of lights wins quite often. This set is ideal for smaller projects that I want to light up. The 36-inch lead wire between the plug and the first bulb means that most of the time I don't even have to run an extension cord.
