My wife has a cozy little spot outside where she likes to sit and I think I can enhance the area. I headed down to my local Dollar Tree and the whole goal of this project is that everything has to come from there.
To start, I grabbed some rope and some clear bottles.
I also grabbed some cool little light lights that actually have a little light bulb, but they're fairy lights.
The first thing I want to do is take the hook off the top of the light. We need that for later, so we're just going to set that aside.
Next, we're going to take the bulb off. This is something we don't need, but be careful taking it out. We don't want to damage the light.
We need to take the actual light mechanism and pop it out. It's really easy to do. Just give it a push and out it comes. Again, be careful with the fairy lights.
Now we need to paint the cover. I'm going to paint it the same color as the chairs that are outside. Remember, it's always good to give it a little bit of a light coat first. If you need to add a second coat, go ahead.
There is a cork here on the bottle so go ahead and remove it. We don't need that anymore. Let's toss that away.
Next, I grabbed a bottle cutter from Amazon. It was only $20. It's got a little score mechanism on there.
What we're going to do is put the bottle on the rollers and go ahead and start turning it.
It's going to score the bottle, which is giving it a little line. The cutter will cut the bottle but not all the way through.
Once you have gone around the bottle, you want to get some water boiling and right next to the water we're going to need some super cold water. This is how we separate

Use Dollar Store Vases To Create Outdoor Lighting
I love solar lighting around my patio area in the summer but sometimes the ones you can purchase aren't very pretty or cost too much for me. I decided to spruce them up with some dollar store vases. These end up costing $2 per light (not including the markers) but look so much better than the dollar lights.
