With Autumn in full swing, our walls are leaving some of us with an empty spot where our jackets could be neatly hung. These Concrete Lightbulb Wall Hooks have a cool pop art/industrial feel and they are fairly simple to make!
Head over to instructables for a step-by-step guide. Here's what you'll need:

TOOLS:
- Small pair of pliers
- small pair of wirecutters
- small screwdriver
- carbide scribe. You can use something like an awl or even a long skinny nail, but I found my trusty old scribe to be invaluable in this.
- plastic tub to mix the concrete in. I used an empty five pound tub of spreadable margarine.
- a scrap of wood to mix the concrete with. You could use an old wooden spoon or something like that if needed.
- plastic spoon to put the concrete mix into the lightbulb.
- A measuring cup and measuring spoons for adding the correct amount of concrete mix and water.
- a toothbrush you won't be using for your teeth anymore.
- coffee stirrer and plastic cups you "borrowed" from Starbucks
- Gloves and safety glasses. A must because the glass bulb often breaks and little shards go flying in all directions, including straight at your eyes.
- Misc. items like Sharpies, some rags, etc.
MATERIALS:
.- Quikrete Mortar mix
- Lightbulbs
- Water
- Lag Bolt

The meth addicts should be pros at this.
I wonder if you could do the same thing using plaster??
Plaster would impart a lot of dust on the jackets unless it were properly sealed. And plaster also gets drier and more brittle with age - I think it would reach a point where the lightbulb might pop off the lag bolt.
And why not add some creative flair and add food colouring or paint to the mix? Gees - surprised they never suggested this in the first place.
I wonder would it be possible to make these into door knobs? I like fun little surprises like that throughout my house!
