Thanks for all of this. For sure, protective goggles, gloves, and 
a tea-towel are all good equipment.
Why the lamp bulbs? I've been looking at bromeliads (sp?) and 
similar small plants, and thinking that an array of clear glass 
light bulbs cradling a variety of small plants and cuttings might 
make a great hanging ornament.
Imagine, say, twelve clear glass lightbulbs, each with a small 
bed of moist gravel or sand, each holding a small succulent, 
arranged somewhat like a mobile, but not as free-swinging and 
crash-into-each-other-and-shatter like a mobil.
Or imagine the light bulb being a miniature reservoir of water 
(moisture) sitting in a depression in the soil of a terrarium. A 
means of keeping the humidity high without wetting the soil.
Your suggestion for using egg-trays as seedling beds is 
excellent, especially for fast-sprouting seeds, where the paper 
tray segment can be cut and placed directly into the soil, where 
it will hold the seedling and then rot away.
