  • One of the best uses for these solar lights is to use them in glasses or vases when the electricity goes out. Just keep 5-6 in a flower pot surrounded by flowers during "normal" times, but during an outage they are better than flashlights because you can leave them on a table during the whole night w/o worrying the battery will die.

The solar lights on broomsticks are still looking great. I really loved the solar lights in mason jars. I hung about 50 of them in the trees. My neighbors asked if we hosted a wedding because it was so lovely. I wanted to come back and say thank you for the great tips.

  • You are just amazing! A woman after my own solar light heart! I'm 62 years old and thought I'd seen it all! Over the years I've always made crafts and try to spend as little as possible and Dollar Tree items work so well! The trick was always to make something quick and easy at a reasonable price so I wouldn't have to charge more than $5 to $10 ! Let's face it, people are cheap and they want bargains at craft fairs. Plus, they'll walk by your stuff while whispering to their friend that "they could make that too! The trick is to keep my price low which means the purchased items to make one craft has to stay low enough to make the sale double or triple what I actually paid to make it. Wow, that was a mouthful, but you get the idea. I don't do much crafting anymore, but I passed the baton to my daughter. She'll absolutely love all your great ideas! I'll be sharing this with her so thank you very much for your great imagination!! God Bless 💙

  • Brilliantly simple and on the cheap to boot. I particularly liked the broom handle/dustpan handle hack. No matter how careful one is with the weed eater the lights will get damage. I don't know how sturdy the plastic handles are at this time. I'd suggest finding one made of some sort of metal. As you mentioned it's a good idea to get it above some plants. Solar lights need a lot of sun to work properly. Thank you young lady for some great ideas to work off of.

  • Solar lights are great to keep in your yard year round. During a power outage, they make a safe indoor lighting alternative, during power outages. By bringing them in the house after dark to create inside lighting and returning them to the yard to recharge after daylight. Especially during storms that can leave you without power for several days. You don't have to worry about finding a flashlight or having enough batteries on hand, during stormy weather.

  • I love the way your brain works! I have spent hours walking around looking for decor or specific items. I find myself thinking, "this would be prefect if it had a hook, was a little higher, didn't have this awful frame or had a round/square/box base. And here you are... taking one item and walking around turning it into what I've been trying to find all this time! I've spent just as much time looking at every little piece of wood with cute little quotes. I've spent too much money on those pieces of wood and other large, odd shaped and unique paintings that I love, but have never been hung and are multiplying in the shed because they don't actually go with and of my spaces. My husband has spent 20 years watching me walk through the door with another piece of wood, painting or giant shapes asking if I plan to hang any of them or add more to the walls ever. I realized I'm a wall decor "collector" with a housefull of mostly bare walls! 🤦‍♀️ I don't want cluttered walls like he does. It has to be specific and have meaning, I guess. I spent 2 hours going through my husband's workshop last week looking for small pieces of wood, hooks and handles to put together an idea I've had for our laundry/mudroom. I refuse to pay $2000 or more, but couldn't quite figure out how to do it myself. The laundry room is full of items I've been trying to sell on the marketplace to a bunch of no-shows. I finally decided to load everything up and donate it this weekend. However, I just realized most of it can also be used for my idea and a few others I've had as well! My husband will be ecstatic when my 20 year "collection" and stuff to sell are finally gone! I apologize for this being so lengthy, but I have to add, I've been in more than a little funk for the past year. I've been a stay-at-home mom with lupus for so long trying to balance my energy just to keep up. I stopped doing things I enjoyed long ago to save energy for everything else before my body shuts down and forces me to sleep. Now that the kids are older, I have all this time for myself but I'm no longer into the things I used to enjoy. Your video has inspired me to create so much in the form of art that's been in my head for years but felt incapable due to my health. Ironically, this is the "light" I've been in desperate need of for longer than I knew. Thank you! ❤

    • I can relate to collecting things for various projects. Mine used to be fabric (I used to sew and had 2 industrial sewing machines and expertise in designing and making clothes). About 10 years ago, I donated everything after I realized that I kept collecting (with the goal of getting the perfect fabric for making the perfect outfit... But then not following through... Only to repeat the cycle). Not sure how I came to decide to donate it all but I realized many years into it, that I no longer enjoyed seeing even if what I made was professional looking. I can also relate to having a certain amount of energy. I try to conserve mine for things I value. Unfortunately, a very clean home is not a very high priority! 🤣

  • I put them in my flower pots and keep some in a pail, near the window, for storms and hurricanes, so when the power is out I put the flower pots in different rooms of the house and I put the ones from the pail in vases or other containers in the bathrooms, halls or stairs. If you have a child that is afraid of the dark, it's great to put in their rooms. I made one to hang for my grand daughter's room and she loves it. It's cheaper than batteries or night lights and if the power goes out, they still feel safe.

  • I'm in the southeast and Summer time early fall means Hurricanes. Solar lights are great for prepping for these emergencies. These usually have a screw to be able to access the battery. If you find ones that are the little squeeze thumb access, even better. The reason is to be able to charge batteries, AA or AAA. They really do well to use for items that you may have to use these batteries in flashlights for example. Some may say well, use USB chargeable lights. The problem though may arise in which you won't have a place to charge it and there are usually only so many charging ports. So with a bunch of solar lights that can charge many batteries at a time this may be the perfect item to keep in an emergency disaster kit. Just tips to keep in mind!

  • Those are all great ideas. I have used the Menards cheap solar lights when they were .88 on sale. Made many jar lights with colored marbles inside. Remove the clear plastic and just use the puck. I had to wrap electrical tape a few turns to get those lights to fit snuggly in the canning jar ring. They are not water proof so have to periodically open the jar to dump out the rainwater. Have many that sit and a bunch hanging in my tree. Keep in mind every time you glue down the light it becomes impossible to replace the battery. I keep looking for rechargeable batteries that don't cost more than the light. I did find some EBL batteries with a multi charger that have been working well and were reasonably priced.

  • This Video came out on my Birthday! Thanks for the Gift of Fun and Great Ideas! I especially like the Paper Lantern idea I like paper lanterns, but I don't like having to replace the mini battery powered tea lights to keep them lit. I've got two rows of the DT solar lanterns in my side path full of overgrown mint so my guest don't get swallowed by them on the walk down! I wanted to make the path with hanging lanterns with the mini shepherd hooks, but I couldn't figure out a durable light source. Since these things survive outside anyway, I can move ahead with my shepherds hook lighted path that I've been wanting for months!!!
