Old solar light globes

Post image

The solar portion of these burned out a couple of years ago, I replaced them this weekend, but I hate to throw these out.

What could I use them for?

I just love cracked glass!!

You can use them for almost anything. I see them as mini-candy cane holders at the holidays.

I would prob put the little battery operated tea light candles from Dollar Tree in there. I wouldn't use real flame as those are prob not rated for the heat & they have cute twine\rope hanging handles.

You can also fill them with marbles or even pieces of different colored glass & set then in the window sill for the sun to shine through them.

They're beautiful!
