so excited to see how the sparkle lights work…
the hope was they would work with the wooden lamp standard that we discovered up in the rafters of the garage (since its discovery, I’ve added extra garland to fill it out)…
I’d been waiting for some sunshine since they arrived and on Sunday afternoon the sun finally came out…
I rushed out and set them in the planter on the front step to gather power… then, once it was dark, I hurried out to see how they looked…
nothing, not a glimmer;-(…
on Monday, I searched through the box and found the directions, lol… apparently you need to attach the stand to them before they can work… and, that they can work in a window in the house… so I was outside again and connected them to the fastener…
fingers crossed…
that still didn’t work, sigh… yesterday I took one of them and looked carefully on the back and really pushed the on/off button…
well, that worked… took quite a while to wrap two sets around the lantern post but I am pleased with the results;-)…
and we got it outside…
