solar light stand

17 years ago

I have been tring to figure out how to post this thing. To the poster that wanted to know how to set up a solar light chandelier. I did it with hoses. We had a light fixture in our kitchen that we kept banging our heads on. I sent it to the basement for 15 years. When solar lights came out I pulled it out, gutted it, and put rubber hose in it, then voila, solar lights. I am not sure how to post pics so I am sending this link. Maybe you can find it in all the mess. Since the basement in the house, I now live in a mobile and love gardening and junk even more.

Here is the link:

    Roseboo,
    that link just takes us to the sign in page... sorry

  • 17 years ago

    Link didn't work for me either. Would like to see your stand.

  • 17 years ago

    I'd like to see it too. Rose if you go to your page in the album with your picture and copy the address in your browser, then post it in the little box here under the message called "optional link url" then name it My light stand or what ever in the name the link box, that should work. Sometime the link box doesn't appear until I preview the message but for instance I'm looking at it as I type. The other way is to go to the picture in your web album and copy the html code and past that directly in the message but I'm not sure how to do that with your album as I use photobucket.
    You can also test your link when you preview the message to see if it works. Just use your back arrow to come back and actually post the message (don't for get to do it like Ive done lol)
    Good luck and please try again! It sounds like a really cool project.

    You did a really good a job, the chunky chandelier really matches up to the solar lights well. Your yard looks very nice also.

    roseboo...I like how you recycled that chandie...and I loved the tour of your gardens at your mobile home. You've created WONDERFUL gardens in such a smaller space! AWESOME! TFS pics! Jeanne S.

    Fabulous! I'm glad that I got to see the whole album! You've done a superb job in a small space. My son says that your chandi looks like fun to make. I think so too!

    Great idea for chandi. I keep looking for one at sales. I really want to do one of these. I have some solars that can be switched to color changing i would like to put on a chandi. Also enjoyed looking at you yard and creations. Is that a stove by your litlle pond?? Like it a lot. What did you use for your pond?? It looks clear. The flower pot is a good idea too. tfs

    Your home and gardens and displays are CHARMING! I just love everything you have done! It is just magical.

    Very nice solar chandi. I also enjoyed looking at your whole album and lovely gardens. Is that a sum and substance hosta? One of my faves. And your iris are incredible! Just beautiful.

    Yeah! You were able to post! And what a treat it was. I love the irises and that big fat hosta is to die for! But your "junk" is just as fabulous. You certainly packed a lot of pow in a small space. I love the elephant planter and the old truck planter too. The solar chandelier looks great too! Didn't someone have a problem fitting the solar lights into the chandelier fixtures in another post? Well, it certainly looks like you overcame that problem. Great job and thanks for sharing your lovely garden!

    Glad you had to post your whole album as it was such fun seeing all your neat ideas. Loved the different light & darker greens, surprises like the tall lilies in the little pots, the seating at different areas so you can just sit down & take it all in,the truck planter & all the colors like the ladder with birdhouses is so sweet. The owl peeking out of the building!! And the chandi is very charming!! Thanks!! Jan

    Thank you all for the kind words. I moved here two years ago August with a dump truck full of plants from my former gardens. Some of them still haven't been planted. It takes time to dig up new gardens but it's alot of fun.The old stove dates back to the 1800's. The little pond is an aquarium. I ordered it from Home Hardware years ago. It is indeed clear and is wonderful lit up at night. I have it full of "junk" that I have picked up here and there. I love water features and over the years I have made them out of anything and everything. Someday I'll compile the pictures and send them in, (now that I partially have the hang of it). Thanks again everybody. I've been reading for years and I'm finally glad to contribute.

    You've done a wonderful job with your gardens and placing your 'junk'!
    If you hadn't mentioned 2 years ago I'd of thought you had lived there alot longer with how established your gardens are!,,,Debbie

    Loved looking at the pictures of your beautiful gardens. Especially your bed of hostas and how you have the groups of two arborvitae trees in the front of your home. Would love to sit and relax with an iced tea on your patio. Just wonderful.
