This is a super easy DIY for multiple occasions! Just break open some glow sticks, dump them into an empty jar, close with a lid, and shake them up!
This is great to use:
- for your kids’ sleepovers: use them as night lights and save on the electric bill, or use them as a safer option to lamps that tend to get hot throughout the night. the kids will be fascinated by your creativity!
- for the outdoor get-to-gether: string many of them up or scatter them throughout tables and use them as colorful lanterns to create an intimate and special mood during the night. you can also use a black sharpie and draw on fireflies or other little pictures so they stand out against the glow!
- for the “grown up” party: instead of mason jars, try empty liquor bottles! Use a lot of different colored glow sticks and you can have your own mini rage party inside your house.
- for the romantic indoor date: if you want to be romantic but think lighting up 50 candles in your house will probably cause a fire, take the safer route and cover the room with interesting looking vases and jars. keep that romantic mood by using only white glow sticks so they give off the candle-lit vibe.
