We use the solar lights and a small variety of decorative garden stakes. They look so pretty when interspersed among the flowers and greenery.

So very sorry to hear about the loss of your husband who initially started this hub. Nice to know that you are carrying it forward.

Would love to see some of these solar crackle glass ball lights in person in someone's yard. They look pretty in the photo. Thanks for making us aware of such things. Voted up and interesting.
