These pumpkin lanterns are super quick to assemble. It will probably be the easiest functional halloween decoration you will ever make. All it takes are the $1.98 pumpkins from Walmart and solar path lights. I bought mine from Lowes. I used a one-inch drill bit and a two-inch drill bit. In a matter of minutes your sidewalk will be illuminated with glowing jack-o-lanterns.
This is literally the easiest thing you will make from the internet. Carefully drill a hole in the bottom of the pumpkin. This should not be done on a surface that you care about. Once that drill bit pops through there is no stopping it. I ended up doing this on the ground so I wouldn’t damage anything. Then take the 2-inch drill bit and finish the job. You may need to widen the hole just a bit with a serrated knife or box cutter. Just be careful.
Poke the base of the light through the bottom of the pumpkin and assemble the light per package directions. The lanterns I chose were 5 inches. I think I would like them better if they were just a tad bigger. I linked a 6-inch set below. Once you have the lantern assembled, stick it in the ground where you want it to go. Thats it! And now you have a spooky Halloween walkway.

Notes from my Mema stuck in her Bible🥰 these words. Her handwriting. They bring so much comfort. If you do anything for your kids or grandkids, do this. Keep a journal or keep your old study bibles with your notes in them and give them to your kids or your grand kids. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I don't feel so good today but these words and her hand writing are brining me back to life.
The easiest meal prep dinner you’ll ever make. Just assemble the sliders. Pour over a butter mixture and then when I’m ready to cook it we just bake it at 350° for about 20 to 30 minutes until it gets heated through and it’s warm on the inside.
Molly and I are headed to a ladies church Christmas party tonight so we had to throw together a veggie tray for that and assembled this meal for tomorrow night. I’m working a 12 hour shift tomorrow. We will be eating dinner at the party tonight and the boys are going out too. I found some really good looking Duchess potatoes in the freezer section at Walmart today. Check out my stories and I’ll show you. We’re gonna serve the sliders with those potatoes.
