If you’re anything like me, you’ll use mason jars for just about anything. They’re great for storage and decoration, and now they make for adorable lights, too!

These string lights are a super cute addition to any room. The best part? Most of the supplies are all easily found at the dollar store! Get some inexpensive string lights and those cute little mason jars to start. I think you should get lots since this creative lighting idea is so affordable. Why not? You can use these outside on the patio for parties and any other place you need some pretty ambient lighting that looks as cute in the daytime as it does at night. My teen daughter actually took mine off of the patio to use in her room and I had to make more to keep outdoors!
