Will someone explain what I’m not country enough to understand
I think they’re lamps made out of beer bottles (just with no lightbulbs installed yet, they’d sit in the top).
Further context for those outside US:
The bottles are from two of the most common, cheap domestic beers, which can be found everywhere but are strongly associated with low-brow party culture of the suburbs and the holler (tailgating, barbecues, etc). Like, if you order one of these at an upscale place, it’s probably either to signal approachability / lack of pretension or because it’s the cheapest thing on the menu.
Also making do with what’s at hand, aka “redneck engineering,” is a meme in its own right.
Edit: not turning my nose up, to be clear. (Though if I’m picking up a case of cheap beer, it’ll be PBR or Schlitz if that’s still around. Maybe non-light Coors.)
If you were going to do that, it seems like you should fill the bottom half with cement or something - otherwise they’d be top heavy.
“Get it? Light beers! Daryl, come look at these light beers, they finally found a use for em.”
Classy af to be sure, but wouldn’t work without a base to keep it from falling over. My cats love to launch themselves around, mostly when I am asleep and would certainly destroy these beauties.
When the labels are still on the bottles.
