I went to an all town garage sale and found a bunch of fun candle holders to upcycle into solar light creations!

Here is the first candelabra that I was excited to work with and just in time for fall. This candle holder was $4!

I used Folk Art Treasure Gold to paint the stem, and I used Copper to paint the leaves. I let that dry after painting.

I put Super Glue into the base of the candle holders, pulled solar lights off their bases, and placed them into the candle holder.

I let it dry completely and love how it turned out.

Here’s a picture of it lit up at night.

Here is the next set of candle holders I picked up. I already had 3 glass lamp shades on hand that I was trying to figure out what to do with.

I Superglued the glass lamp shades to the top of the candle holders and let that dry.

I pulled solar lights off their base (I got these from Walmart) and placed them into the glass shades.

I love how they remind me of flowers and they are currently lighting my front porch.

Here’s a look at them lit up in the evening.

Here’s my last candle holder. It’s really big, beautiful, and heavy.

I pulled apart 3 Walmart solar lights from their bases and placed them into the candle holder for a perfect fit.

Here’s the completed solar light and it’s on my back patio to create ambiance.

I love how you used these as outdoor decor. So creative!!
Thank you so much Angie 🙂
You have inspired me with your solar lights. I grabbed all the discounted solar lights at Walmart
Happy Fall,

Awe Kippi, thank you so much – I’m thrilled and love that you got the solar lights on discount!
Your solar light creations are always amazing! Both sets are beautiful. I can’t decide which one I like the best since they are both awesome! I think of you every time I go to a garage/yard sale and see candle holders. LOL 🙂
You are so sweet Linda, thank you so very much 🙂
Wow! What a creative collection of outdoor lighting! I think I like the second set best, but they all look amazing! Awesome upcycle projects!
Thank you so much Gail, I appreciate it.
This is such a pretty way to re-use those old candle holders. They look great.
Thank you so much Beverly
Your solar light candle holders are absolutely awesome! And might be a nice addition to my condo balcony. Pinning!
Thank you so very much Michelle and once you get started creating you’ll find so many options. Love it and thanks for the Pin
Those turned out beautiful! I love doing stuff like that, but the table top ones won’t work for us until we have more shelter from the wind! But I will pin it just in case!
Thank you Cherryl, and I totally get what you’re saying. The last one is super heavy so I know it’ll stay put during the wind storms we get.
These solar lights are all so pretty. I love the glow they give off and your yard must look amazing at night.
Thank you so much Jenny. My kids joke that they have to wear sunglasses at night now because of all my solar light creations 🙂
Those are some really cool looking candle holders you found! I love how you added the solar lights! Thanks for sharing with us at The Blogger’s Pit Stop!
Thank you so much Roseann, and I’ll see you at the next party.
Turned out great! I have an old chandelier I have been meaning to do this with. Even have the lights. Guess I should get to it! LOL.
Thank you so much Pamela, and I’m excited for your chandelier. I have 4 chandeliers in my yard, under my gazebo, and front porch and I love them all. My kids joke they need sunglasses at night lol.
