Eternally Christmas.
I can never have enough twinkling light. Period. End of story. These Candy Cane lanterns were fun and fairly easy. With some modification, they would be a great addition to summer outdoor decor, too.
Here is what we used:
- 48″ Garden Shepherds Hooks (Lowe’s)
- Red Paint (Lowe’s)
- Vintage Mason Jars w/lids (GOOD LOOK, Inc.)
- 20 Gauge Anealed Wire (Lowe’s)
- Mica Flakes
- Battery Operated, Remotely Controlled Votive Candles w/timer option
The key to this festive project is two fold: these particular shepherds hooks were essential because of their shape, reminiscent of a candy cane and secondly, the battery operated votives with the timer option. Since the mason jars are lidded to protect the contents from the weather, it is important to have a way for the candles to turn on/off automatically.
I hope you find some inspiration.
Always,
Cindy
