Imagine my surprise then when about a week later I was driving up my street and saw not one but two lamps sitting next to someone's garbage can on the curb.
I pulled over and scooped those babies up.
This is the one I made. The other one still needs painted and I want to check Lowes or Home Depot to see if I can find a different solar light for the top. I'm not totally happy with this one but it was all Walmart had when I was there.
Now I just need to decide where I want to put them.

Wow, this is so clever!!! You did a great job!
a small table on you deck, does it get sun to power it after dark? this is really cool... those people should have donated those lamps but I am happy for you that you got them FREE.... painted like this they even make great candle holders... keep on pinteresting.....
What a neat idea. You did a great job. Can't believe your luck!
Good find. I like the way you fixed them up. Well done. Have a great day.
How fun. You're so very clever.
Have a fabulous day off. Big hug to you and my very best to Gibbs. ♥♥♥
Ann, this is a fabulous idea. Thank for sharing it.
Great job....yes, I have done the "grab things up from the curb" thing myself. I love it when someone reads my mind and they put out something that I have been wanting....I mean needing!
What a cute idea!
WOW, now I will be looking. Wait I just got rid of a few and never would have imagined.
FANTASTIC!!!
I know now what I'm gonna be looking for while I drive by during 'trash pick up days' around here!
Great job Ann...seriously.
These are great!
I'm like you always lurking around on Pinterest. Don't discount he solar lights from Walmart - we bought some 4 years ago thinking we would just toss them in a year and they are still going strong even thru winter!
Those turned out great! I would never be able to look at lamps and picture what you made. You're awesome. :)
