6. The “Mushroom” Garden Lights

Using colorful glass bowls and vases, you can create whimsical “mushrooms” that glow from the inside. This is a great way to add a pop of color to shady garden corners.

  • Materials: Small glass bowls (the cap), glass bud vases (the stem), solar stake lights.
  • Steps:
    • Invert the glass bowl over the top of the vase.
    • Place the solar light inside the vase so it shines up into the bowl.
    • Glue them together with a clear, heavy-duty waterproof adhesive (like E6000).
