Enter the Light

I decided to add a couple more lights to the garden in the form of gate lanterns. Initially, I used an older lantern I already had that required a candle. However, out of laziness, I decided that I wanted some sort of solar powered lantern that didn't require my constant attention.

After searching the web for a long time I eventually settled on the following lanterns. The lights are simple LED string lights with a solar cap. 

They are not meant for full weather exposure, but I decided to drill some hole in the base to allow rain water to flow through rather than collect.

These were relatively inexpensive, have a nice pattern, and cast just enough light to be inviting and interesting.
