Instructions
- Thoroughly clean the mason jars and allow them to dry completely.
- If using wire, wrap it securely around the neck of each jar to create a sturdy hanging loop. Make sure it is tight enough to prevent slipping.

- For extra stability and decoration, add pebbles or sand to the bottom of the jars.
- Position the shepherd hooks along your walkway, garden, or patio at evenly spaced intervals.
- Hang each mason jar from a hook using the wire loops, ensuring they are securely attached and able to withstand light wind.
- Turn on or test the lights and adjust their placement as needed to achieve the desired lighting effect.
