Sick of flailing around in the dark basement, trying to find the pull chain for the light? Add a little heft and color to the mundane, and reuse a dozen bottle caps at the same time. Add a little heft and color to the mundane, and reuse a dozen bottle caps at the same time. These fun, funky pulls could also add a twist of retro-recycle panache to a paper lantern or old porcelain fixture.
