instead of thowing them out after I replaced them, I turned them into a tabletop solar light.
I used a couple of jars, 2 solar light tops, rope, and my hot glue gun.
You can add items inside the jar if you like, I used sticks inside the larger jar.. Then I
simply glued the solar light to the jar.
Then I hot glued rope around the top for a decorative accent.
They work beautifully and look so nice on the patio table!
Please note: I wouldn't leave these outdoors in the rain however, because the hot glue doesn't seal them completely. ( I found this out the hard way and will have to redo them) :0)

Very creative! I want to get some solar lights. They are so pretty! I don;t know why I haven't bought any yet!

Oh how clever! I have a couple of little solar lights that the tops have broken off of (tripping over them while mowing or something), this would be the perfect thing to do with them!

Super cute and functional! I love it when things can be repurposed... I am so going to steal this! Thank you so much for linking up... I will be featuring this project on a link party round up tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteWe all learn from our mistakes - So evidently I must be brilliant :>))) This is a creative and clever repurpose.
