I came up with the idea of wrapping my Japanese Maple with some solar lights…

so, my housemate lifted the plant onto the living room table and then I spent an hour walking in circles with the string of lights…

had to stop occasionally when I got a bit dizzy, lol…

it came out nicely, although I had to wait a day so that the power in the solar panel had a chance to charge…

I am hopeful that I can leave the lights on, even in the summer when the Maple moves outside;-)…
