Party Lights...



So with the 4th of July just a couple of days away...most everyone is looking for cute party ideas. 
I'm not actually hosting at my house this year...but I do have entertaining on my mind with our deck and patio all "cute-ed" up.
(If you want to see that you can take a peek HERE)
So when I saw the fun solar lights in jars Kelly made over at Eclectically Vintage...
(go over and check hers out HERE)
and since I have about a "million" glass canning jars...I decided to whip some up too :)


I made mine pretty much the same way she made hers...only I used jars I had on hand and tied on some twine for fun.


I twisted off the base...


...added sand to the jar for weight and tucked in my light. I was going to leave the like that until I realized I needed something to cover the top...just in case...


So I added a little waxed paper and some lid rims...which I also had on hand.


So there they will sit...
looking cute all day, charging up...


...so they can light up at night.

I'm thinking I'll make a bunch more...they will be fun to tuck in...


here... 


...and there for parties...much safer than candles, and cheaper than battery operated tealights and batteries :)


I think it is the perfect party addition to my little buggy pedal plant/wreath hooks.


And I thought the blue cow tags looked kind of patriotic with my red and white petunias :)


Don't you?

Hope those of you in the US have a safe and fun 4th of July celebrating.
God Bless America!!
