Outdoor Candlelight

Twig Lanterns
This post was a long time in coming.
Like a year.
Last year...I collected twig lanterns when I could find them on sale 
from different sources during the summer.
By end of summer I had seven of them.
**UPDATE**
I had several you ask where I bought my lanterns...
I found them at Hobby Lobby, TJ Maxx and Marshalls.
I bought some remote controlled led outdoor candles last week at Pier 1
to burn in them, finally. 
I love that with one click I can turn them all on...flickering candlelight and no mess.
Really, the main reason I wanted to use these instead of real candles is I didn't want to turn the glass
inside all black. 
And I wanted to be able to leave them outside without worrying about them
melting. 
These candles are made of plastic instead of wax and they won't melt.
They are 20% off at Pier 1 through July 7th.

There was so much good stuff in last week's Mod Mix Monday that I'm showing off 
the stuff I loved that was garden related in this post.
Melissa of Daisy Mae Belle created a cute canning jar lid wreath but I'm really 
showing this because her backyard is so pretty.
Cindy of Sunset Coast painted this pot.
Isn't it fun! I love her use of color.
Penny of Penny's Vintage Home has a new fireplace in her garden made by someone she calls H.
I assume it's her hubby. How wonderful to have as a focal point in the garden.
Angi of Drakestone Primitives Country Cabin took a little metal table and added
some painted details making this perfect for use in the garden.
In His Grip spray painted a very sad little vintage tricycle pink and 
is now using it as a planter.
Isn't it precious?

Mod Mix Monday is still going on
