DIY Solar Lantern

Supplies:

  • empty small-mouth mason jar or other small decorative jar
  • inexpensive solar yard light
  • canning jar ring (optional)
  • hot glue

Directions:

  1. Remove the lid/ring from your small jar.
  2. Remove the solar light unit from the inexpensive solar light.  Recycle the rest of the solar light or reserve for another project.
  3. Place the solar light unit (with solar cells facing up) on/into the top of the jar opening.  Secure with hot glue.
  4. If desired, place a canning ring on top of the jar (around the solar light) and secure with hot glue.
  5. Place solar lights in your yard, they look great sitting on the porch or hanging from a shepherd’s hook!

Heather Leister

Seven years ago Heather began a blog that eventually grew to be a successful review website for parents. The website continues on today under separate leadership. For the past several years Heather's primary focus has been her family, but she has continued to work in the industry as a freelance writer. Heather enjoys yard work for a very simple reason. Yard work produces visible, tangible results. With four kids at home, there isn't much in her messy, busy life that can do the same!
