Well guys here is my first lights I made. The blue is truly the first and then the red is my second, I think I like the net work better on my red one but again this is my first shot at these. And remember these are "gazing balls" about 11 inches across, I think they will suit the tiki hut just fine!! I frosted the blue one to see how I like the look and I am going to make adjustments on how the netting is finished on the the blue one too. On the red I braided the the upper part of the netting and lashed it together so I can hang the light from the actual net and I like the look PLUS it hides the electrical better.


ALSO here is the mech I made for the electrial shown as it would be installed into gazing ball. IF you notice the red ball would be a tight fit but the blue was not so I had to buy a different blub socket so it would fit correctly.


Let me know what you think guys, I think my next ones will be real nice I have it down now!!
