Oh they are pretty, what a fantastic idea! that is something I can do with my 3 year old, she will love painting monsters and elephants which are her 2 favorite things on the jars, do you use wire to hang them up?

Hi Jacque,
Congratulations---- the garden lights are magical.
A lovely inspiring and creative idea for lighting the garden or a dining area outdoors at night.
Garden lighting can be very expensive.
Wait until summer Jacque- I can see you out in the garden enjoying a nice glass of wine and a super meal outdoors. Thats what gardening should be all about. Enjoying all the hard work and putting your feet up.
Well done again,
Best wishes,
Grenville.

Thanx Grenville I enjoyd making them& am now collecting smaller Jars as id like 2 hang a few from my Cane Trellis near patio :)

Yes i used Garden wire u use 2 tye in plants ect .Have fun Painting&Designing your Jars :)

brilliant jacque, one we can all try

Thanx Irish :)

I really enjoy seeing homemade things in gardens. Your tealights are great! (Did you use a special type of paint?

No its Old Nail Polish lol & its ok i did an experiment b4 i did more of them ; ) lol

They look GREAT Jacque and the nail polish will hold up very well on the glass. Have you thought about using wire so that you can hang some of them underneath a tree or patio ? The wire would wrap well around the mouths of the jars.

Always wonder ,d what to do with our old glass jars we no longer put glass in our recycling Great idea Jacque

They look lovely, Jacque, they remimd me of warm summer evenings in the garden!

MMMMMMMMMMMMmmmm they do look pretty Andrea&i cant wait4the warm summer eveings 2 admire them from my Swinging Hammock with a glass of wine :)

ooohh ooohhh.... put small stones in the bottom of a tall jar, then put in your tealight and put it in your birdbath...birds won't mind it it's at night...and the reflections will be pretty. ???

Great Idea Lori il do that :)x
