Something's Hiding In Here homemade sun jar We made sun jars using these instructions by Cre8tor at Instructables: Home-made Sun Jar. It’s based on the Sun Jar design by Tobias Wong. These notes are what we learned along the way. The short version: – Ikea Slom jar, smallest size, about $3 – single Malibu brand solar garden light, about $10, from Lowes (see notes below for pictures of the specific one as there are a few variables) update: In the years since I wrote this tutorial it’s become easier to find individual garden lights that pop off their ground stake and are small enough to fit inside the lid of a jar. – glass frosting spray – some Blue Tak or sticky stuff Disassemble the Ikea jar and spray the bottom half with glass frosting spray. The long version: The guts of the homemade sun jar are made using a solar garden light. At stores I also found solar lights for floating in pools, and ones made to sit on patio tables, a lantern and even, oh my gosh, a light-up squirrel. BAD – Two batteries, couldn’t get open. BAD – Two batteries.
