We had a bunch of old glass solar lights that all had bad sensors. My husband held onto them, thinking there must be something we could use them for… I love how this little upcycle turned out!

Looking for a fun and unique way to add style and ambiance to a walkway or patio area? These solar-powered painted concrete mushroom lights were very simple to create and offer a whimsical alternative to basic walkway lights. Store-bought solar powered walkway lights are susceptible to cracking and breaking but with a few inexpensive supplies, I created sturdy and unique lights that won’t break or succumb to the elements.

There’s nothing more beautiful and welcoming than a warmly lit path, or garden. And concrete rock solar lights are perfect because during the day, the unsightly black lights are disguised.

I went to an all town garage sale and found a bunch of fun candle holders to upcycle into solar light creations!

Here is another Dollar Tree DIY I created for my home.

Hello there! I'm excited to share how I made solar mason jar lanterns with Dollar Tree supplies. I really wanted solar lights in our backyard, but they can be so expensive for attractive ones when you have a lot of ground to cover! Dollar tree solar lights are tiny, and flimsy by themselves so I didn't think they were a good solution. I have seen several different versions of diy mason jar solar lights around Pinterest and I was thrilled when I found the materials at a local Dollar Tree to make my own version of these beautiful​ hanging solar mason jar lights for just a few dollars!

The coolest way to light up your front porch is with a pool noodle!
