What a loving thought to share your talent in making memories for family. The soft glow of candlelight and the smell of evergreen. Comforting...
These use no candles, but Christmas lights.

I love lighting in the garden! Thanks for sharing. :)
Thanks so much for this link! I love the flower lights idea for two reasons:
11]. When my garden dies out in the fall (like now!), I find it quite depressing. This year, I planted late zinnias, but I think the frost got them last night. To light the garden up during the long dark hours of winter would be a mental lift. I have plenty of metal fence posts that I use to support tomato cages/plants so they would make great ‘stalks’. Here are some zinnia pics that I posted on the garden thread yesterday, if you’re interested:

[2] This past year, my elderly mom got rid of a lot of partially or totally non-working Christmas lights/decorations (outside lighted deer made from branches, etc.), plus they were getting too hard for her to deal with. We are in a rural area so flower lights up the sidewalk or along the driveway/fence would be really pretty. As simple as these are to make, if a light had an issue, it could easily be replaced. I have bookmarked the page I’m going to have to set up a new database for all these craft ideas - I keep my knit/crochet patterns on a database so I don’t ‘lose’ them, also have them if the website links quit working.
The Homemade Vanilla . a present I wish someone would give me since I haven’t had time to make it for myself. I have a couple of nieces who like making homemade gifts . I’ll have to leave them some big hints!!
