So I have been working on some Christmas gifts, and I made this solar chandelier from a solar Edison bulb, and dog leash chain and a stripped vintage lampshade that I spray-painted black. It was originally destined for my mother-in-law, but I really love it now, so it may not be leaving...

I realise I could look it up... but I've never heard of a solar lightbulb before... have you tried them before? I might be super keen to invest if you're happy with these little miracles of light.

Ya know, they are actually pretty cool. They have a little solar panel on the top, and they aren't super bright at night, but bright enough, and if I don't have to pay for the electricity...well then it's a winner winner chicken dinner for me! These are actually pretty expensive, but I happened upon some at our dollar store and was like heck yeah! So I got the lampshade for a dollar at a thrift store, I stripped it of its nasty old material, and then took a third of a dollar store dog leash and attached it to the bulb. So for like $2.33 I have a sustainable patio light!

OMG! You are a magician of thrift!
Nice score young lady! Our power bill went from $30ish dollars in our apartment to $180 on our farm... so looking into every possible way to cut that down and be more sustainable. Thanks so much!
