Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 Top of a Yard solar Light
- 1 wide mouth Mason Jar
- 2 cups glass gems
- 1 Gorilla Glue
Instructions
- Unscrew the solar light from the globe and stick. Remove the cover from the batteries and remove the battery.
- Pour the glass gems into the mason jar filling about halfway (about 2 cups of gems for a quart size wide mouth jar). Filling only halfway leaves room for the light to shine and the gems to reflect the light.

- Replace battery and cover, and if needed file the corners of the cover or just leave the cover off. Screw the solar light on the mason jar and place outside and enjoy your evening filled with the soft lighting.
Notes
Don’t worry about replacing batteries since the sun recharges the battery every day and you will enjoy maintenance Free lights every night.
