The light expresses the desire to waist no material. It is created from two wine glasses or champagne flutes without their base. An anodized aluminum ring wraps a strip of LED lights in the middle.<\/p>\n<p>It comes in diverse shapes, colors and sizes ranging from 6\u201d to 16\u201d long. The bases are used to make spinning tops and yoyos.
