Step 3

Punch a big hole in the middle of the lid and using your pliers, rip away the metal up until you reach the

holes that you punched in Step 2. You should be left with an opening on the lid.

Step 4

Optional: To blend the color of the lid and the socket, apply spray paint (metallic spray paint works

best). Let it dry completely before moving to the next step.

Step 5

Punch more holes on the outermost part of the lid. This is so that the heat can escape when you have

your light on the mason jar.
