I’m an inventor, ha, ha!
Too lazy to string a cable to my maisonette sleeping space under the skylight, I’ve been searching forever to find a good LED light to read by. I ordered one through the internet, which was PATHETIC.
Yesterday I bought two LED push lights for £ 1. 99 at a local hardware shop.
One of them is now resting in a structure made of a coat hanger, with the wire bend to just the right angle.
A light for half-a-penny under £1 – this must be a record. It also looks pretty elegant.
What do you think?
Other news – someone did a brilliant radio interview of me today and forgot to press the record button. As part of the interview I remember saying something like – things that go wrong send us on a detour, there may be something we need to pick up along the way.
Love that light, we have similar ones in the back of out truck for reading in bed. They are great.
“things that go wrong send us on a detour, there may be something we need to pick up along the way.” Very deep !

Yes, I can finally have my bedtime read without screwing my eyes up.
The interview was interesting. Wonder what the next one will be like. Timing is a curious trickster.

beautiful! you can make tea light holders like that for the garden using old glass jas and coat hangers to hang from trees.. or even create a chandelier.

Great idea. For tea lights a thinner wire might do. The wire of coat hangers is quite strong. You’d need good pliers and, ideally, a workbench with a vice. Meaning not a mild fault of character, but the thing that keeps things immobile 🙂
