I like them all but the flickering solar light in the Vintage cheese grater was probably my favorite.

[@southerncrushathome]

I just subscribed to your channel since Mother Thyme mentioned you. Both of you mention linking one another’s channel, yet I didn’t see the link on either channel…maybe I just missed the links. I love your solar lighting ideas. Thank you for sharing these with us. I look forward to watching your videos and seeing more great ideas. Many blessings.

[@rondaphillips7017]

great projects, I couldn't help wondering if the blue flowers float,how wonderful would they be floating on your pool with the lights in

[@southerncrushathome]

That would be beautiful-thank you! ❤️

[@MotherThyme]

I Love all of them!! I love sea ideas so I am wanting to make #5. My Grandson will be here mid July and I know he (13 years old) would like to make his own choice, rather than me pick one out for him. Thank You Melanie for these Awesome ideas! ❤️

I agree Cheryl! I'm so glad you love them! I hope you'll try one!

[@doreenaery2722]

These are great ideas! I also thought a planter bottom tray under the flower and the solar light in the middle. Maybe let a few float on the pool water.

[@southerncrushathome]

Great ideas!!!

[@debbiebrown8752]

[@southerncrushathome]

Me too!! Thanks for watching!

[@sharondinwiddie308]

OMG! I just stumbled upon you! I loved this video. So many cool ideas. I have family coming over for Easter. I think I’m going to make the one that you put the glass etching sticker on for all my female guests! Hopefully I can find the jars! Dollar Generals are everywhere, surely one of them will have it!! Loved the button one too. I love buttons! 🤗 Definitely hitting that subscribe button! Love your sense of humor as well! I couldn’t pick a favorite either.

[@southerncrushathome]

I’m so glad you’re here!! Thanks for subbing and I’m glad you like to have fun!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@michelemcafee7906]

Cute ideas! My favorite ones were the succulant one at the very beginning and I loved the sea glass one. I think that one would look great sitting out on my table beside my pool.

[@southerncrushathome]

Thanks so much! 😊 and I agree! 🙌❤️

[@keirstenbooboo2616]

put a clear bead of silicone caulking around the edge of the black square solar panel and rub it down flat and they will last twice as long. water can seep in and destroy it. no silicone no problem just fill the cracks with clear nail polish as i started with that and switched to silicone. hope this helps someone out there. have a blessed day!

[@southerncrushathome]

Thank you for the great tip!!!! 🥰

Hi Melanie… I’m struggling with what size mason jar (regular or wide mouth) I can use with the dollar tree solar lights…. Help please!!

[@southerncrushathome]

Mine was just a regular mouth

Hi there. Any of the DT solar lights flicker?? If so which one. It doesn't say on any of them at my DT

[@southerncrushathome]

I don’t think I got one that flickers from dt

[@user-sy2dj9nv4e]

❤🎉😊

[@melodyemmert3077]

You don't need the music in the background. Makes it hard to hear you.

[@southerncrushathome]

Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️

[@gfhuerta]

What size mason jars? Are they the large mouth because the large mouth is too big and the small mouth was too small --- I couldn't get the top of the light through it.

[@southerncrushathome]

These were the small mouth jars. 🤗

[@kath_168]

[@6moonsofsaturn]

I don't understand the tag that says "Succa" can someone please explain?

Hi. Came over from Mother Thyme. Happy I did.

What if you place a small mirror under to reflect the light on the second light craft...

Great idea! Thank you 😊

Wow! Thank you! I drop “Dollar Tree specific” videos every couple weeks and lots of fun in between!

[@kathydoucette1381]

How do u get the light of when it stops working

[@southerncrushathome]

I’m not sure which one you’re referring to, but typically you would make a new project since they’re super affordable to make--or pluck off the light and add a new one. I’ve not had any lights ever stop working though… hope this helps 🥰

[@whispergirl77]

My OCD must say I noticed the sticker was changed. It's ok, just saying. Very good ideas here!

On what? 😳

Sea glass WITHOUT the sticker

I hate when you ask for hitting the subscribe button, this should be up to people, if they like your show or not!

[@southerncrushathome]

A lot of people are brand new to KZbin and don’t know that hitting that subscribe button along with commenting and hitting the like button is one of the only ways for me to grow this channel and keep making videos for free. I don’t have a way of knowing which video that they will end up watching first; therefore, I need to mention it each time-I assume most of my subscribers have no issue “tuning” that 3 second message out. ❤️

[@johill53]

Nice ideas. The music is very annoying. Not necessary.

[@southerncrushathome]

Thank you!

[@Mr6wolfdog]

Yeah, I am going to agree with the comment before me. The Music is just awful. I find I do not watch videos with distracting music or big introductions. People think they are being professional, but that is Perspective! I thought this video would be fun, but I couldn't get past 1:41. Wishing you..🌷 and 🕊️, and a wonderful day.

[@southerncrushathome]

You can always watch my videos on mute and still get all of the steps, ideas and inspiration my friend! Hope you’ll stick around! 🙌❤️

[@5744m]

Agree, the tacky music us AWFUL!

My OCD keeps kicking in. It's Mandala, not Mandela. Good work on your projects. I'm just being petty.

[@southerncrushathome]

Thank you 😊 ❤️

[@AhNee]

Just a note, the glass isn't crystal, it's glass, but it's a collectible, but still found cheaply enough. It's Wexford, which was acquired in boxes of laundry soap, oatmeal, etc.
