Bottled Sunshine

I recently received my very own uber chic Solar Jar from Consol and I´m finding so many uses for it! The Solar Jar harnesses the power of the sun to provide a lovely warm glow that lasts up to six hours. These versatile solar jars are not only environmentally friendly; they are also beautifully decorative and make an innovative gift.

Whether you use them to light your dinner table, exhibit them on a mantle piece or as outdoor lighting, the choice is yours! I think they would also make excellent decor for weddings or parties to create the perfect ambiance.

The Solar Jar is a safer, more energy-efficient alternative, is great for camping and outdoor entertainment, and of course for when the power goes out. I think I may grab a bunch for Earth Hour next month.

Whatever you choose to use your Solar Jar for, you can rest assured that you are making the environmentally-conscious choice. The Solar Jar costs a very reasonable R150 and you can buy online here.
