This adorable mason jar lantern is solar charged on top of the lid with a rechargeable AAA battery. The fairy lights automatically turn on once it is dark enough and will turn off when it becomes light. There is an off switch under the lid to keep it off when desired. It can be set on a window ledge or table that gets some daylight. It can be hung outside with the handle on your patio or in your garden (the bow is removable). The lantern is water resistant because the fairy's and paint are on the inside of the jar. This would make a lovely unique gift for a child who needs a night light or someone who loves to decorate their outdoor space. Hope you have fun finding a home for these sweet sparkly fairies!
