Hang on Easy is a light bulb cover made out of see-through polypropylene that instantly turns the bare bulbs in your house into soft and stylish lighting fixtures. Hang on Easy was created by [Ransmeier & Floyd](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bienvenue) and is currently being sold on the Droog design store for $134. As a starving college student, I can't necessarily afford to own a Hang on Easy of my own, but I still love the idea behind this design. Why purchase and install a new lighting fixture when you can just dress up an old bulb? You can check out Ransmeier & Floyd's design here, along with a ton of other [innovative illuminators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/residential-led-lighting) from the Trend Hunter archives. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.0/10 - Popularity: 23% | Activity: 28% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Lightbulb Makeover:** A trend towards simple and affordable solutions for transforming plain lightbulbs into stylish lighting fixtures, disrupting the traditional lighting industry. - **Upcycling Home Decor:** A trend towards repurposing everyday objects into stylish home decor, disrupting the traditional home furnishings industry. - **Transparent Product Design:** A trend towards transparent and minimalistic product design, disrupting the traditional product design industry. ### Who This Affects Most - **Lighting:** The lighting industry can explore affordable and creative solutions for transforming plain lightbulbs into stylish lighting fixtures. - **Home Decor:** The home decor industry can incorporate more upcycling ideas into their product offerings, appealing to environmentally conscious consumers. - **Product Design:** The product design industry can focus on creating minimalistic and transparent designs that appeal to consumers looking for simplicity and functionality. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Encapsulated Semi-Transparent Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nested-pendant-light.md) - [Hanging Connected Light Fixtures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-pendant-light.md) - [Demure Dual-Function Hanging Planters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/light-fixture-planter.md) - [Hat-Like Fabric Illuminators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flying-lamp.md) - [Bubble-Inspired Pendant Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bubbles-lighting-design.md) - [Interchangeable Magnetic Ceiling Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/docklight.md) - [Face Mask-Made Illuminators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anonymlux-lamp.md) - [Outlet-Equipped Workstation Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/avro-pendant-lamp.md) - [Elegant Axis-Mounted Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pendulum-lamp.md)
