Solar lights are an easy and energy-efficient way to illuminate your backyard garden, your front walkway, your patio and just about any outdoor space. They're inexpensive and powerful (as long as they receive direct sunlight to charge). Instead of messing with extension cords and paying more on your electric bill, consider adding solar lights to your home's exterior. Here are a few options to try.

For Patios + Porches
Solar-powered lanterns are a beautiful addition to a patio or porch table. You can hang these from a metal stand or hang them in a tree for a seriously stunning display. String lights are pretty when strung over a patio or on the edge of a fence.
Walkways + Gardens
These types of lights have stakes that go in the ground and are great for lining walkways and gardens. They add both safety and ambiance to your yard. Floral solar lights are cute in the garden by day and illuminate the area at night.
Driveways, Side Paths + Front Yards
Solar lights can also be a source of security, whether you install motion sensor lights near your driveway, along a side path or to illuminate the front of your home.
