Welcome to our 1st
Haul video! I absolutely LOVE that our first Haul video is a Halloween/Fall
Haul!! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, Halloween and Fall is MY favorite Season. I’m so
excited for all the upcoming craft projects and tutorials that we have planned
this year! Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube Channel, so you don't miss out on the upcoming 'Krazy Deal Daze Spooktacular Series!' We will be putting out 6 videos in this Series, ending with a FULL indoor and outdoor house tour of all our spooky decor!
On my hunt for a Beauty Light Ring I saw prices ranging from $50 to $800 depending on the size of the light and the manufacture. Not wanting to spend that much, I wanted to see if I could make my own cheaper? Yes I could and yes I did!! Be sure to watch the full tutorial in the video below.
Tools Needed: Scissors or Snippers (Small Wire Cutter)
Materials Needed
1. Metal Wreath Ring from the Dollar Tree $1
2. Nylon Cable Ties (Zip Ties) from the Dollar Tree $1
3. Paper Towel Holder from Wal-Mart $2.34
4. 16ft LE D Rope Light Kit from Wal-Mart $12.88
Alternative base option:
Universal Smart Phone Holder from
Five Below $5
Step 1. Insert capped end of LED rope in-between the first
and 2nd metal rings of your wreath ring
and secure with a zip tie.
Step 2. Wrap LED rope light around the inner ring of your
wreath ring, securing it with a zip tie at each brace point of the wreath ring.
Step 3. Start the second row right above the first row and
secure with a zip tie.
Step 4. Continue wrapping your LED rope light around your
wreath ring, remembering to secure with a zip tie at each brace point.
Note: Repeat steps 3
and 4 until you reach the end of your rope light.
Step 5. Once you've reach the end of your rope light, insert
the power end in-between the last two
metal rings of your wreath ring and
secure with a zip tie.
Note: I secured the
power end with 2 zip ties
Step 6. Make sure all your zip ties are secured and snug.
Step 7. Take a pair of scissor or in my case snippers and
cut the excess from all your zip ties.
(Optional) Step 8: Attach paper towel holder to the back of
your wreath ring using zip ties.
Note: There are many
other base options out there. This is one of the ones I have chosen to do for
this tutorial. I have added another option towards the end of this video.
Step 9. Again take a pair of scissor or in my case snippers
and cut the excess from all your zip ties.
Step 10. Attach power cord to the power end of your LED rope
light.
Another option I added after filming this tutorial
(Optional) Step 11. Attach the Clip-On Grip of the Universal
phone holder to what would be the inner bottom of your Light Ring with a zip
tie. Then wrap the flexible gooseneck around the back of ring and secure with
more zip ties.
Total cost of project using the paper towel holder base $17.22 before tax
Total cost of project using the Universal Phone Holder $19.88 before tax
In the end I decided to use both
MY total for my 14 1/4" DIY Beauty Light Ring was $22.22 before tax
That's still almost half the cost of the cheapest ones I found!
