Make a cool lamp from egg cartons: cut out the individual cups from the egg cartons, and trim them to look like flowers. Lay the cups out on a plastic sheet and spray paint both the outside and the inside of the cups. Let dry completely. Push a lightbulb through each hole in the chicken wire. Once the lights have all been poked through and attached, form the chicken wire into a cylinder, and tie together with the wire. Stand the cylinder up like a table lamp.
