Create Outdoor Beauty From Interior Sconces!

Jane H
by Jane H
take interior candle sconces and paint them bright colors then glue $1 solar lights. I purchased the sconces at thrift stores, or rummage sales for dirt cheap. Some of the solar lights I used the "stand" and sometimes I just glued the clear base onto the sconce. I have over 26 various sconces on the fences in the back yard for a total of about 53 solar lights. Looks bright and cheery during day and makes a beautiful glow at night.
Spray paint any color you want!

    I love this idea. How expensive are the sconces?

    These are so great with all the pop of color and you have lots of room on your fence in full sun to charge the batteries. I didn't know you could buy 8 rechargeable batteries at Dollar Store for a $1!!!
