Many of us wish we could keep our outdoor lights on all year, but tangled electrical wires and hefty energy bills prevent us from doing so. Fortunately, technology has improved. Today, I’d like to show you how I created a DIY fairy light tree using Starbright’s solar-powered string lights that can be used all year. Solar-powered lights reduce the need for extensive electrical lines. Starbright financed this research.

This 5-foot fairy light tree is ideal for placing on a covered patio or porch, surrounded by foliage or flowers. Making your own fairy tree is just one example of how to employ solar-powered lights.
