For the DIY'ers

These glowing orbs over at The art of doing stuff are sort of brilliant.  Reused lamps, old string lights {think those hard to put away holiday lights} and a plug.  Easy peasy.  Outdoor lighting always seems to be super pricey, but this quick DIY is perfect for those on the budget, plus it could lead you to a trip a thrift store; just think of all the other amazing finds you may have!  Be sure to check out the rest of amazing DIYer Karen's site its filled with fun and super budget friendly projects for all sorts of occasions.  And do stop by her post on her amazing home that was published in Canada's Style in Home, its perfectly styled mixing high end pieces with budget friendly finds.
