Questions and answers
What size are these solar garden lights?
These retro solar lights measure 2.8 inches wide, with a height range of 11.2-25.8 inches. Check those dimensions against nearby planting and your intended location before choosing.

Which print should I choose for an atomic-style garden?
Start with the shapes you already enjoy indoors. If starburst garden stake lights are on your wish list, look for a motif with those pointed atomic forms. Diamonds add crisp geometry; playful animal motifs make the mood less formal. Compare the shapes and colors in the Atomic Diamonds print.
Where can I use these garden lights?
Consider the front path, a garden border, or planting beside an outdoor sitting area. Choose the location first, then let nearby flowers, your exterior colors, and the view from your chair guide the pattern. For a patio with vacation-at-home ambitions, browse the Palm Springs print.
Can I mix prints and coordinate them with indoor pieces?
Certainly. Keep a shared color or shape in the mix so the garden feels deliberate rather than like the station wagon unpacked itself. Repeating a favorite print indoors also connects the patio to the room beyond it. Start with the Black Cats print and choose coordinating pieces for your household’s resident cat enthusiast.
