Elegant and upcycled holiday lights
The fridge is still overflowing with Thanksgiving leftovers yet we seem to be the last people on the block to decorate for the holidays. How can it be December already? No wonder holiday lights are sprouting up all around us at record speed! I may not be able to keep up with the frenzy of decorating but I can make a simple and chic statement by hanging an upcycled glass lantern from Going Green Lanterns on the porch.
After all, bright electric lights cannot compare to the soft twinkle of candlelight. A pair of lanterns would frame a simple wreath-adorned front door elegantly. And unlike icicle lights, these lanterns transition perfectly to illuminating spring picnics and summer barbecues. So whether you can't seem to put up the holiday lights before New Years or you can't seem to take down the holiday lights before Easter, these lanterns are perfect for you!

Love the amber lantern with the dragonfly. What a unique use for old bottles. I remember when the home bottle cutters first came out, everybody had a set of large and small self made glasses but like everything else back befor green became popular it was just a fad. Glad to see it back and in such a lovely way.
These are lovely! I like the GREEN LANTERN WITH ETCHED VINE DESIGN MADE FROM A 1.5LTR WINEBOTTLE best.

I like the amber etched lanterns...would like to get one with the vine etching though...if not, the green etched vine one is fine. Very cool. Have not seen these before.

The green lantern etched with a bumblebee would be amazing to hang in the center of my gazebo, where we sit in the summer evenings, surrrounded by gardens and the scent of wonderful flowers...

We have a breezeway connecting our garage and house, and I think the
Green Lantern with Etched Vine would look so wonderful, especially now that it gets darker more quickly in the winter ;) Thank you for this opportunity!

My favorite is the large Clear Gallon Wine bottle without etching. Lovely work!
My favorite is the embellished amber lantern. It would look so chic hanging from my window.
morancoll@gmail.com
I am really digging the large bottle (can't remember the size) that is unadorned. I feel that that could look elegant in any setting and could be dressed up ona case by case basis, to suit any decor.
I'm a sucker for anything with a fleur de lis on it. Love the green laterns!
