Outdoor Christmas light ideas that do not look like Christmas

MN Mom on Mar 15, 2016You can decorate a shepherds hook plant hanger or underside of a table umbrella. You can also cover a small trellis with lights. As long as you don't have the lights hanging from the eaves like tradional lights, Santa or a reindeer up I can't see how decorating with white lights would be too ChristmassyHelpful Reply

KatAych on Mar 15, 2016You could make "chinese water bombs" which is a square box folded out of paper and slip those over the lights to string across/around your porch. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/39476934211914741/Helpful Reply

Janet Pizaro on Mar 15, 2016Use tomato cages over any flowering plants and run the lights through that. I do this every season and it looks amazing at night.Helpful Reply

Nancy J on Mar 16, 2016I am glad you asked this question Tammy, I kind of went crazy buying solar Christmas lights AFTER Christmas, I am in PA and wanted to decorate with them this Spring & Summer, but didn't want them to look too much like Christmas. If I come up with or find any ideas, I will let you know, I DID have one idea to repurpose light globes with the lights somehowHelpful Reply

Tammy Hawkins on Apr 23, 2016I found lovely bird feeders that look like lanterns. I put the colored lights inside and attached the solar panel to the top of the feeder. It is perfect!Helpful Reply
