Campsite lighting idea

An inexpensive solar light & an upside-down ceramic flower pot... quick & easy!

Pinterest....my wife has suggested many projects from that site. It is both good and bad!

I've seen this before at campgrounds on the Oregon coast except they didn't use a clay pot- they added some cement to a coffee can and then painted it brightly.
It would be a little heavier against our windy coast weather and also I've seen them use as hold downs for the quick-up canopies. People didn't run into the stakes at night!!

I've got to go get me some lights!
Happy camping!!

Great idea for an outside nightlight that will not bother anyone!

Thanks
