A Light for All Seasons

In winter snow or summer haze, we love the instant romance of outdoor lighting. So, we’ve found three lighting options that will add some serious atmosphere to any yard – without any nasty environmental side effects and all for under $10.

For a gorgeous wintry look, you should check out IKEA”s $5 ROTERA lanterns or, simply, make your own. Design*Sponge has an awesome DIY project for lanterns made from ice – and luckily Mother Nature does the majority of the work on this one.

And when the weather turns warmer, check out IKEA’s newest line of solar-powered, LED summer outdoor lighting: SOLIG. The remarkably efficient SOLIG lights will be on shelves in a few weeks at incredibly affordable prices: $9.99 – $39.99.
