    I honestly didn't think this would look so glorious! Absolutely stunning. Made one and put at my front door. Lady drove by stopped and asked where I bought it. I told her I made it and was making more in other colors and sizes. Guess who got a commission to make 24 for a sweet 16 party???? Yup and she's paying me $20 each! I can finally afford a washer for my home!!!!

    These are so pretty! They’re perfect around the pool. I’m loving the fairy lights with the cell battery packs. The battery lasts longer and they’re so easy to hide since they’re so small. But, I always struggle with making the fairy lights look uniform and pretty. I wish she had shown how she did that, especially through 3 bowls.

    I would use fine grit sandpaper just to smooth the edges inside. As far as the battery pack, I would get a smaller bowl and glue glass stones to it and turn it upside down and it would conceal that and the light would reflect off the glass stones more or glue them to the outside base and it would conceal it a little better. The greenery is nice, but if it's windy, it would blow off. Just a thought.

    • @rebeshirley4276
      @rebeshirley4276 2 роки тому +2

      You are welcome 😊 Just a friendly thought/alternative. I also saw that Dollar Tree 🌳 has a small package of lights on one side and clear glass stones on the left side of pkg for $1.25. That could be an alternative. I don't know if it's like the little tea lights. I saw them on their website. You showed a really pretty way to decorate the outside pool/patio area and it gives it a such a soft ambient atmosphere. I would be spending my time outside on cooler evenings. Very romantic as well! 💐 🕯 🍽 🥗 🥣 🍷

    You could even use 2 blue bowls, bottom one up side dn, then nxt 1 right side up, then just 1 clear bowl upside dn over the blue bowl 2 make it look like a crystal lamp shade. That way guests could c ovr the lights wen chatting 🙃

  • @calahbeckwith9648

    P.S. if you like to garden, you can make a moon garden. All you have to do is plant white flowers that will stay open at night. The white morning glories called moon flowers I think will stay open , and there are white petunias and white hibiscus etc. When the moon shines on them it is gorgeous. They glow almost. Plant a bunch. Im sure you will love it. Especially when the moon is full and almost full. I cant afford it right now as I would have to pot them due to our lousy soil. But I always wanted to do my yard like that. Your lamps would be a perfect touch.
