Candle Lanterns: A Cheap and Beautiful Outdoor Lighting Option

Recently, I was visiting our neighbor Joel and was really impressed with his back yard. We live in a townhouse community and he had fenced in his backyard. He lined the fence with tealight lanterns for outdoor lighting. I adore this look! Especially for get together and parties. Absolutely gorgeous and so frugal!

Ikea sells the Rotera lantern for tealights for $3.99 per piece. They are suitable for outdoor use and can be purchased here. They also sell Glimma tealights in packs of 100 for $3.99, which can be found here. If you have extra money or time to shop around, they come in many different styles that evoke memories of the eastern shore or Morocco depending on your tastes.

  1. Those tea light lanterns are absolutely cute! :”> They give off enough brightness to light the place without compromising privacy. I’ve been planning to put that kind of outdoor lighting in our garden, but my schedule is tight until next month. Nevertheless, I’m really excited! :D
