If you’re a part of the unfortunate group that doesn’t get to enjoy a winter wonderland Christmas because it’s hot all year round and spend your Christmas parties outdoors feeling bummed. However, you at least get to enjoy a clever new way of hanging up the Christmas lights for the next big party (In the backyard – some neighbors wouldn’t like beer bottle lights being displayed in their neighborhood 😉 ).
If you do get snow, but want to take advantage of this cool lighting then substitute the colorful LED’s with white lights and enjoy this DIY lighting in the summer time.

Affordable and beautiful. You can make little cuts into these paper bags creating unique, intricate designs that will enhance the ambiance of any party theme.

I’m sure everyone can donate an empty jug of whatever and Christmas LED lights to help execute this awesome outdoor party lighting idea.

If you know, anything about origami ( I have to left-hands 😉 I don’t belong in that group) then incorporate those skills into making an outdoor lighting out of your origami projects.
It’s highly affordable and just needs some white Christmas lights then instant ambiance with a twist. Psst. I can make a paper airplane!!!

Here we have a cool family DIY outdoor lighting project made of ICE! Yes, Ice! All you need to do is fill up a water balloon to the size you want your light sculpture to be and freeze it until fully frozen.
Once it is frozen remove from the freezer and cut the tip of the balloon (The tied up piece) and start peeling the latex balloon off.
Get a strong Ice Carver (Parents do this part) and carve out an opening for the tea light candle to sit and illuminate your driveway or porch during the next winter.
