Let There Be Light!

So, with so much more things to do... (Looks like the next update hopefully will be the shed.) But before embarking on anything major, with just over a year of putting in some solar lights, all but one of them were dead. Tried replacing the batteries but still to no avail. So decided on a different option and something that would not be a total waste of money.

Having seen a friend buy these solar-powered topiary balls, I thought they would be a nice addition to the garden, I had already installed four hanging basket holders, and had enjoyed them with flowers last year, but now they were redundant so the idea was to buy these topiary balls (artificial of course.) As I thought they would look great, need zero maintenance and as they had solar-powered LEDS would shed some light on the garden. They actually have 2 settings, either permanently on when it's dark or flashing, I opted for the permanent setting as I did not want my neighbours complaining of flashing lights whilst they tried to sleep.
You can see below, how they look both in the day time and the night time. The total cost of these was just under £10 per topiary ball, a total of £38.00 spent. And I do think they look good. And, should the LEDS pack up, I will just snip the wire and use them as something purely decorative as I am sure at some point down the road I will be installing hard-wired lighting in the garden...(Maybe even an old fashioned ornate lamp post. Only time will tell.

I hope you have enjoyed my gardening blog, and that you carry on with the journey with me as I turn it into something special. (Just got to save up some more money for the next step now.)
