Just yesterday I brought out a bunch of vintage xmas lights from storage with the hope of selling some off on eBay.  After photographing the bubble lights I thought it might be a better idea to keep them and put them on the tree this year.  So this year I am going to do our tree with all vintage lights, that is if I can find enough old light strings to use.

Regarding the link you posted - nice bubble lights, but at $180 per set I wonder how many he's actually going to sell?

I also found this video - clever idea using LED lamps and a heating element:
