Outdoor Solar Lights: Unique Ideas for Creative Landscaping

The problem with adding a bit of accent lighting to your backyard is that the job normally comes with annoying wiring and complicated timing systems. However, don't give up on your outdoor lighting ambitions before experiencing the convenience and simple set up of solar lighting fixtures.

With no cables or wiring to worry about and uncomplicated dusk-to-dawn operation, outdoor solar lighting is your best bet for having a well-lit but hassle free yard. While in the past you may have had some experience with solar lighting that is dull and inconsistent, you'll be pleasantly surprised to find a much more efficient and brighter line of products on the market today. Here are a few top notch examples to get your own ideas flowing.

Solar Glow in Dark Spinning Earth Garden Lights

When most people think of outdoor solar lighting, they imagine the classic black top-hat style path markers that inevitably get lost in a sea of vegetation. These beautiful updates of that classic mainstay let you inject your garden or walkway with a bit of color, art and light just where you need it.

These eye catching lights are powered by super bright LED bulbs that are covered by round glass covers that are modeled after the spinning earth. Each light in the set of three is perched at the end of a 19 inch stake and comes with a generous 10-foot cable to connect to a separate charging station, which allows you to install the lights even in a shady area of the lawn or garden.

Solar Hanging Plant Light

More and more innovative uses for solar lighting outside the home are being exploited every day, which means you have more options for brightening up your garden than ever. This clever solar hanging plant light sheds a dramatic net of bright light over any of your favorite hanging blossoms for up to 8 hours.

This creatively designed unit features hanging loops at the top and bottom so that it can be incorporated seamlessly onto any hanging basket. The underside has six bright LED bulbs that operate from dusk until dawn while the top half collects the sun's rays throughout the day. Add an extra classy touch of style to your garden with this simple yet effective solar hanging plant light.

Large Solar Rock Spotlight

Ever more powerful solar panels and ultra efficient LED lights mean outdoor solar lighting is more powerful and versatile than ever before. Far from the boring path markers of the past, these large solar rock spotlights are capable of bathing shrubs, trees, statues and more in a brilliant, incandescent-like glow every night.

With no cables to worry about, these rocks are constructed from molded poly resin and come in a variety of colors to blend into any garden's décor during the day. The unit measures 8X5X6 inches and comes with its own rechargeable batteries. Combine this practical yard accent with several more for a dramatic and elegant look from dusk until dawn.

Solar Lighted Step Stone

While solar lights may have done a great job at marking the edges of pathways in the past, now you can light up the pathway itself with these amazing solar lighted step stones. Built of durable poly-resin and measuring 13 inches square, these innovative stepping stones automatically light up with a warm glow from dusk until dawn.

The perfectly elegant and safety minded solution for pool side or front walkway lighting, these lights feature a true stone-like veneer and are UV protected so they'll stand up for years of usage. Each individual stone features a 12 hour battery so that your pathways will stay safe and well lit all night long.

Slim Solar Powered Stair Lights

With the idea of safety in mind, consider guiding the footsteps of guests through your garden with a set of these slim solar powered stair lights. Measuring only 1 inch thick and 15.5 inches long, these super bright marker lights can be installed around existing path stones and bricks as a lining but are perfectly suited for tucking into the corners of stairways.

These useful lights don't require any wiring or special installation but come with optional stakes for mounting in the garden. Each unit's bright LEDs burn brightly through the night while the built in solar panel collects the sun's rays throughout the day.

From lighting backyard cookouts and garden parties, to providing a dramatic glow in your yard or garden, outdoor solar lighting is a versatile and attractive option for beautifying your home. In the winter, solar lights can help decorate for the holidays or shed a spotlight on an exceptional snowman. Whatever you use your outdoor solar lights for, you'll find that they offer the simplest and most effective means for brightening up your yard.
