I've just been feasting my eyes on the Sparkleball site, Sparkleball being the oddly-named concept of making festive and funky lights out of old plastic cups. It's a great form of recycling, and you'd be surprised at how easy it is to make them, and just how effective they can look. There's a gallery here showing all kinds of creative ways that they've been used to decorate trees, houses and spots all over the world.
