Easiest DIY Bottle Project EVER

We get LOTS of people emailing us and looking for ideas on creating something useful with their personal bottle collection.  Well, we've adorned our yard with these DIY solar bottle lanterns, and they MAY be the easiest DIY project on the planet!  

Here's what you need:


1. BOTTLES!
The lighter the color, the better they shine!  Clear, frosted, and light colored bottles work best.  For this project we decided to use Grey Goose bottles.






2. SOLAR PATH LIGHTS!
You can find these ranging from $1 to $5 at any local retailer or hardware store.  Make sure you get the kind that you can easily twist the top off of.  Most of them look like this:

Now...  all you need to do is take the top part, or the solar cell and light combo, off the stake and place it on your bottle. Place your bottle with the solar cell facing upward in the sun to charge up.


And tonight, as you enjoy your summer evening, you will have mood lighting for your patio, porch or any other outdoor space you choose!  :)



Stay Groovy, people!
And keep repurposing and reusing those glass bottles!
