Repurposing tea lights
+6
Are there any nifty ideas for repurposing tea lights? I have a whole bunch with dead batteries & no longer use them anymore. Thank you for suggestions....

Do you not use them because they don't light or you just don't use them? The Dollar tree in my area has the batteries for about 5 for $1, I replaced the batteries and am using them again. If you get a few lit, you could take out the bulbs and stack them. You could paint some red or green and make candy cane lights alternating with the white. Stack them like checkers to make a little tree centerpiece one lit on top. Just starting to think...maybe I'll be back. Have you tried pinterest? those people are REALLY creative.

I have seen people use these for the head of a snowman on Pinterest...even with a light source I think it would be cute...you would have to add the facial features maybe with 3-D paint ( puffy paint) or you could donate to scouts or kindergarten classes to re-use....hope this helps.

The tea light batteries can be replaced with button battery #CR2032 lithium cell 3V. Usually when you buy large packs of the tea lights batteries are supplied with them.
