DIY Solar lamps.

What do you do when everyone in your neighbor hood has the same solar path lights?

I have seen all the ones I want and then the ones I don't around here.

And my neighbors are the kind that would point out that I got the same lights as someone else, like I really care but I did want something else.  All the ones I found were just.... BLAH.

so whats a gal to do?

I was on dollar store crafts website and came across The hand me down house tutorial on jar lights.

AMAZING! 

so I gathered all the jars from my mom's house.

Okay so only the quart jars, I love big jars. I have no clue why.

and then I added the parts from these cheap ugly things.

I glued the posts on to the bottom, I'm not sure if I care that they are not straight.

If you do this make sure to use water resistant glue, that is really strong.

Especially where I am the wind reaches 85 mph. no joke!

I also just glued the lids on, they fit perfectly on the wide mouth jars!

 TA DA! the finished product.

 See I do have grass....

 You can't see but there is a water pipe access port thing in the middle of my lawn.

I'm sure they thought that out well.

I also changed the wreath holder on my front door, a bird made a tiny nest in it!

Should I leave it or remove it?

Any way you can see the neighbors lights across the street.

I'm so glad I have my own driveway, I hate sharing like that. 

but I can share a common wall with the neighbors staircase. 

I did manage to break off the plastic leg off of one light, the plastic actually broke, not the glue. 

Just my luck!

Thanks for stopping by!
