    I just tried a santa lightbulb - knew I shouldn't, it was awful:rotfl: so I just painted it all black and it'll be a penguin in a bit (i'll post a pic later)

    Ice looking forward to seeing pics of yours.

    Just adding a penguin, I sprayed them all with a spray gloss varnish so they shine nicely now as well as being sealed too.
