These unbreakable bulbs are so simple to craft, you can string together a whole strand in a flash.

What you'll need

  • Scrap paper
  • Scissors
  • Craft foam
  • Black 3/4-inch binder clips
  • Black satin cording

How to make it

  1. Colored Lights - Step 1

    For a pattern, cut a Christmas-bulb shape from scrap paper. Trace it onto craft foam and then cut out the foam bulbs.

  2. Colored Lights Step 2

    Attach a binder clip to the base of each bulb and remove the silver handles by pinching the sides together and sliding them out of their grooves.

  3. Colored Lights Step 3

    For individual ornaments, thread a 10-inch length of black cording through the clip and tie a double knot just above it. Then knot the ends to create a loop for hanging. For a string of lights, use a long piece of cording and tie on one bulb at a time.
