How to Make DIY Light Spheres That Sparkle in Your Yard

How to Make DIY Light Spheres That Sparkle in Your YardIf you’re searching for a way to make your yard glow with elegance, these DIY light spheres are the answer.

They’re lightweight, affordable, and surprisingly easy to put together.

Place them under trees, by walkways, or mix different sizes for a layered effect. You’ll love how they brighten the outdoors without feeling overwhelming.

Materials Needed

  • 2-3 wire hanging baskets (12”-16” diameter, per sphere)
  • 1 pack outdoor zip ties (100 pcs, 6” size)
  • 1-2 strands of LED mini lights (50-100 count, warm white, per sphere)
  • Extension cords with outdoor rating (as needed)
  • Optional: Outdoor spray paint (gold, white, or silver)

Step-by-step Guide

Step 1: Take two wire baskets of the same size and place them together rim-to-rim to form a sphere. Secure tightly with zip ties.

Step 2: If you want a polished finish, spray paint the baskets before adding lights. Let them dry fully.

Step 3: Wrap LED string lights evenly around the sphere, weaving in and out through the wire frame. Make sure the plug end is left accessible.

Step 4: Use additional zip ties to hold the light strands in place so they don’t slip.

Step 5: Plug in your sphere and place it in the garden, by your porch, or along pathways. Then cluster several in different sizes for a professional look.

Tip:

Use multi-color lights for a playful holiday vibe or warm white for an elegant, timeless glow.
