3. Ghostly Glowing Milk Jug Lanterns
For a family-friendly, eco-conscious, and highly creative lighting project, look no further than glowing milk jug lanterns. Gather clean, empty plastic milk jugs and use a black permanent marker to draw unique, expressive ghostly faces on the front of each—ranging from spooky wails to goofy grins. Cut a small hole in the back of each jug and insert a string of warm white LED fairy lights or color-changing holiday lights. Line your driveway, front steps, or garden pathways with these friendly phantoms. When night falls, the translucent plastic diffuses the light beautifully, creating a bright, welcoming, and delightfully nostalgic pathway that guides guests safely to your door.
