Outdoor Coffee Table- All Lit UP

         Jokes have been made the last few days that you know it's finally spring in Kentucky, because folks are taking down their outdoor Christmas lights and decorations.  Well, I did take mine down in January after we celebrated our belated Christmas.  I have used Christmas white lights in more than one old light fixture.  Last week when we set up the deck furniture, I came up with this idea for a string of lights.
I strung them under the glass top of the coffee table.
They are plugged into a remote.


 It makes a nice soft, non-glaring light.
Yes!  Christmas IS over.  Bring on SPRING!  Please!

    That's very cool! Might have to try that with our glass patio table.

    The lights really give a pretty soft glow to the table. Yes, please, please bring on spring.

    I saw this and it creates a nice intimate feel for a deck or porch. I love the idea. I was laughing when I read yeah Christmas is over bring on spring, cause I literally just took down my Christmas lights off the house yest. : ). I hope you'll come share some of your talents with me at Fidlers Under One Roof. Our linking party is today! http://www.fidlersunderoneroof.com. Hope to see you there!

    Awesome idea of having a coffee table in outdoors you can get fresh air and at the same time enjoy your coffee.

    Thanks
