#replay. 1sr time watching. Like the solar lights!
I use the Dollar Tree broom handles instead of dowel rods.
I love EVERYTHING!!! Especially the lantern. I have a bouquet of 6 solar lights in a vase on the vanity in my bathroom. I can go to the bathroom at night without having to turn the lights on, I love it! Thanks for all the fun ideas. I'm now going to binge watch all your videos tonight. I'll probably wake up in the morning with my tablet stuck to my face. God bless you. Jude, from Kentucky ✝️🐴🐦🌿❣️
Liked the easy uncomplicated dress ups you did on solar. With our non stop NW Ohio wind, not spending a lot of money on lighting on the deck is perfect!
I thought I was the only one that love the dollar store❤️
I like them. They are uncomplicated, quick to make, and enjoyable.

I love that it all looks great and doesn't cost a fortune. Thank you :)

They fit great into the top of a wine bottle! Great ideas thanks! Also if you lose power in your house the lights are great to bring into the house!

What about spraying the bottom of the dowel rods with rubber coating (for cars.) Before sticking them in the ground? Called Rubberized rust encapsulater or rubberized undercoating. Comes in spray pain cans.
Last year at dollar tree I found blue diamond jars similar to yours . Boy are they pretty with solar lights in them. I wish now that I had bought more of them. I just love the blue lights in the yard at night.
Love the jar ones
Thank you for sharing

great tips for solar light hacks the lantern is really nice
fyi: Rubber Bands come in clear too. I buy the tiny size for hair. I think there are like 100 of them in the pk, maybe more! To use them for snugging into candle holder just use several!

I did similar with the same jar but used the lids with hangers from DT and added colored glass stones at bottom of jar to add bright color to the lighted design
First idea is great, add a little bling wrap. It will hide the rubberr band and hide the rubberr band. Definitely going try this. ThAnkhs for sharing.
I love the hanging one. I can see them on shepherd's hooks all around the yard. I've never seen that textured jar at my store. I'll have to look around.

Well, I wish I had seen this before I bought a mason jar that hangs for $5 at the Target Dollar Spot!!! I couldn’t figure out how to do with the hanging parts. You are awesome! Luckily, I save my receipts. I’ll give it a try I’ll see what I come up with.

There are stronger lights. Lowe's sells 5 and 10 lumen solar lights, around 8.00 each. Dollar store sells cheap junk from china with 1 lumen.

How much gas did you burn for the extra trip?
I bought a case of glass jars from Amazon with the hangers and solar fairy light lids. Cheaper than buying the jars and solar lights separately from Dollar Tree and making the hangers. If I remember right, I think the case with everything was $15
Realy loved the ideas they were all inspireing x

Best was jar one
What you made of the solar lights looks nice, just sad that there has not been a stronger solar light out on the market to work with.
Great ideas.
With the hanging lantern jar. If you bend your loops to the out side it will be tighter and less precarious. I started doing this a month ago. Great minds think alike I guess!

I love your quick clever wonderful ideas good job

I love the textured jars, but they don’t always carry them. I make fairy lights out of my solar panels, and that makes them even more beautiful.
Great video. Just hope my dollar tree store has these items. As not all dollar tree stores has the same products.
These days Dollar Tree, 99 Cents Only, etc., have brooms and dust pans that have handles perfect for making tall solar lights - the lights sit right in the ends of them. Right now Dollar Tree sells a long black handle separately from attachments like mops, etc.
Very creative and practical👌

I'm using someone else's idea which is to use dollar tree broom handles. Take the hanger top off and the light will fit right in. Leave the screw end on and screw it into the ground. Should last for years.
Great ideas

Great ideas. You are right the textured jar does look great at night. 👍💕🥰
years ago I made some mason jar solar lights in case of power outages. Now when there are power outages, people think we still have power.

Hahaha. I know what you mean. And everybody comes and asked me do you have power?
We lost electricity a couple times this winter. I think these ideals would serve us well as an alternate to an open flame of a candle or a kerosene lamp. Going back to the DT tomorrow to see if they have any solar lights in stock.

Great
I'm saving my pretty amber supplement bottles to make hanging lanterns. Gotta go find me some wire :)
Not all stake lights fit to the textured jars. Be sure to check in the store. I made one year and next year the lights were smaller and fell right through the jar mouth. Frustrating, as they are so lovely on the patio.
I like this. But I would like to use some plastic jars outside. I need to check the store and my cabinets for some!!!
Would be nice if Dollar Tree would continue to stock those jars.
An easier way to make the hanger for the jar is to use a zip tie. Put the tie around lip of jar twist wire around either side then tighten the zip tie.
You can do the same thing with ceiling fan globes
