Materials

Thrift Store Candelabra or Candle Holder

Outdoor Clear Silicone

Instructions
Prep: Clean your thrift store candle holder thoroughly. If you want to change the color, spray paint it now and let it dry.
Disassemble: Remove the long plastic stakes from your solar lights. You only need the top "head" (light and solar panel).
Glue: Squeeze a generous amount of silicone into each candle cup on the holder.
Assemble: Press the solar light head firmly into the silicone.
Cure: Let the project sit undisturbed for 24 hours to allow the silicone to set waterproof.
Enjoy: Place in a sunny spot on your patio table!
