I'm a huge fan of solar lights in my front yard. Almost all of them are flowers of some kind, to twinkle and sparkle in the winter. Today I received one that is a watering can on a small shepherd's hook and it has tiny filament wires shooting out of the spout sprayed out toward the ground....which twinkle like water in the sunlight. I'm a simple human and this delights me.

@Lizette603_23 I have seen those, and they look great!

@Doreen32128 I'm pretty excited to see it tonight for the first time...it's going to either rain or snow and I'm expecting to be doubly delighted either way!

That sounds so cute! I have one for Christmas with Santa riding a bike. The lights make it look like he’s moving.

@WecanbeGyros I have some neighbors who walk their doggies around this part of the loop to see what's new in the garden. They stand there and discuss it lolol!!! I love that!

@Lizette603_23 that's so cool! I wish I could see it! I sold my house I miss taking care of my yard. I was into microclover instead of grass, pollinator plants, etc. My Dad has solar orb that glows in his yard he made the stand for it, he's a welder. You'd love it! Heehee

@Jon_Kramer ooooo I had those until the sun bleached them out and they wouldn't recharge no matter how many batteries I replaced lolol! LOVE THEM. Thanks for the reminder.

@Jon_Kramer@mastodon.social avatar

@Lizette603_23 , I just tossed one out this morning... most of the time they last about 2 years until they won't recharge, ultra violet decays them, or they get stolen. They are so cheap that it doesn't bother me.

Lizette603_23,
@Lizette603_23@mastodon.social avatar

@Jon_Kramer Likewise. I've had some great ones over the years.

Yeah, but it just adds to the trash pile of wasted resources, takes the pleasure out of out for me.
I like things that last

@MaryMarasKittenBakery Your right of course.

@Lizette603_23 I hit Harbor Fright an hour ago, and bought two sets. I'll put one out tonight, and save the other for the spring.

@Jon_Kramer woooohoooo!! ✊🏻 to the solar butterflies!!

@Lizette603_23 sometimes the small silly things in life are just so joyful.

I really liked your watering can, but that would be stolen from my front yard in days, and I'm the only one who ever uses the back yard, so it wouldn't be as much fun.

Lizette603_23,
@Lizette603_23@mastodon.social avatar

@Jon_Kramer I hear you. I am in a neighborhood which doesn't have that level of theft. Ever thought of a small display on the roof? heh heh heh

Jon_Kramer,
@Jon_Kramer@mastodon.social avatar

@Lizette603_23 3 story home. I'm not looking up there!

The theft isn't BAD, just dumb kids who swipe things. Potted plants seem to be a favorite target.

@Lizette603_23@mastodon.social avatar

@Jon_Kramer lol Don't blame you. I'm not good with heights, although I got better with them before I became the old lady down the street.

@Lizette603_23 @WecanbeGyros I also recommend the solar light houses that Aldi sells sometimes.

Lizette603_23,
@Lizette603_23@mastodon.social avatar

@Jon_Kramer I'll take a look. Thanks.

@Lizette603_23@mastodon.social avatar

@WecanbeGyros YES!!!!! takes a minute to untangle the filament wires, but soooooo cute

@WecanbeGyros I removed every speck of "grass" from my front yard....it's rocky and stupid water use. Put in varying sizes/colors of river rock to simulate streams, plus beautiful curving split pathways, one to stair with a railing another with a slope, for hand trucks or other non stair needs. Planted all self sustaining things as well as a butterfly haven for their migrations...bees have water stations and places to rest....It's a pretty rockin front yard. Yes, I am bragging lolol
