Lighting Up My Life


A few light links that suddenly formed a theme!

LED Throwies If you live in a steel building... How-to instructions are but a click away.

More lights! And more instructions.

A Supermarket for Pyrotechnics Professionals Or, to us, Sparklers!

LASER light show for rent! Be still my heart.

Fireflies A little biological diversity for the evening.

And the best for last: Neon! More than you want to know I'm sure. My favorite neon lights are hanging from the ceiling of JP Licks in Brookline MA- they are a multitude of bright red stalagtites (or stalagmites, I can never remember which is which) about 3-4' long with a perky little flip to the ends. I would put these all over my house if I could find the guy who built them. They were really the same thing as the red glass garden decorations by Dale Chihuly that were at the Norton Museum a few years ago except Dale's were planted in the courtyard amongst the plants. Both were surprising, not what one would expect.
