A strand of lights will serve as a beautiful night light inside your glass block.christmas lights image by Cindy Haggerty from Fotolia.com
Sit your pre-drilled glass block on your work table. Stuff a 50-light strand of white or colored lights into the hole. Get all the lights inside the glass block and let them fall as they may inside the glass. Leave the cord plug outside the glass. - 2). Cut a strand of ribbon to wrap the glass block from front to back, cross, and bring back to the front middle, just like a gift. Tie a big bow with more ribbon and hot glue it to the top middle where the ribbons cross. Put drops of hot glue under the ribbon on the bottom of the block to hold it in place.
- 3). Add silk flowers, dried flowers, or decorative pieces according to the theme. If Christmas, add ornaments around the ribbon. If a baby gift, add baby items around the bow. Put plastic pumpkins and gourds for fall. Plug in the lights.
