In one afternoon, you can create a magical oasis right in your backyard, and customize it any way you want! With some inexpensive canning jars, sand and a little craft wire, you can create a myriad of fairy lights, which can hang from almost any surface. Look for anodized aluminum wire that won't rust and resists tarnish, making it a perfect choice for this outdoor craft. To add some extra drama, replace the regular sand with colored craft sand and create a unique theme that fits your decor! Better yet, get prepared for crafting these hanging lights by creating your own craft table with our DIY craft room storage table hack.
