DIY Outdoor Lighting Ideas 1. Recycled Wine Bottle Torch designsponge My favorite remake of a tiki torch, this wine bottle torch is so pretty, I've added 8 of them around our recently installed deck. If you want something super cool but cheap, make the DIY torches for your yard or backyard patio. You can even add citronella oil to them and keep away the bugs. We love being able to eat outside and have friends over without worrying about having the mosquitos join us. 2. $10 and 10 Minute Solar Chandelier downhomeinspiration An outdoor lighting idea that is quick, easy and cheap, this DIY chandelier can be yours by this weekend. Follow the step by step tutorial to learn how to make your own. 3. DIY Mason Jar Solar Light findinghomefarms If your patio or yard needs some gorgeous lighting, it does not get much better than this solar mason jar light. I made four of these with some pretty vintage jars that have a slight blue-green tint to them and am now wishing I had a few more. When I got to use them last summer at our pool parties, people could not stop commenting on them when they lit up at sunset. 4. Solar Mason Jar Lights diyjoy Another inexpensive but really fabulous lighting idea that uses mason jars and solar power, this one casts a pretty patterned glow on your table. I highly recommend making a few now so you will have them for your next outdoor dinner party under the stars. 5. Outdoor Rope Light christmaslightsetc Rope lighting can be found easily at your hardware store, but the one I bought never looked quite like this. When you light up a walkway properly, the effect can be transformational. I love this idea because it also makes it much easier to walk in the dark ;) 6.

The only question is do you tell people who remark on their beauty what they are actually made of? 7. Globe String Lights makinglemonadeblog 8. Easy DIY Porch Light allthingsheartandhome 9.
