Night lights ...
Last night after the rain I was wandering around the garden and wondered how the iPhone camera would pick up the illumination of the string lights. Here is what I got...

Bob’s idea of putting up string lights is one of the best things he’s ever done for the yard, and he’s done a lot!
Do you have lights in your garden?

GE over-the-stove microwave light/night light
Comments (0)We have a GE microwave (over the stove type), model number JVM1660WB005. I bought the unit new 7 years ago, it was used for 3 years and has been in storage the past 4 years. We installed the unit in our new-to-us home and when I turned on the light/night light the bulb "popped" (didn't break the bulb but sounded like a small explosion) and it broke the glass cover on the side that "popped." I couldn't unscrew the bulbs so I had to break the bulb off the base and then I used needle nose pliers to remove the base of the bulbs. Two small pieces of the black holder for the light bulb broke off both holders. I replaced both bulbs but the lights don't work. I ordered replacement lamp holders and just installed those and the light(s) still don't work. What should I do next? The light/night light feature of this microwave is one of my favorite features. Thanks!...See MoreNEC 300.3(B) and bath fan/light/night light or heater
Comments (4)What he is saying is if you run a 14/3 for instance and use all three wires as hots. The run a separate 14/2 for the neutral. That IS a violation. It is not a violation if you keep the neutral separate in the fan unit. IE: Run a 14/3 to the light and night light and share the neutral. Then run a 14/2 to wire the fan separately using the white and black. It's all in how you wire it, not in how you feed it. In any case, 14/4, or 14/2/2,and the same in #12 is available at a real supply house. Even most home centers carry several forms of this "4-wire" cable....See MoreVintage Camera turned Night Light
Comments (16)Thank you all. Emmarene, I saw it on Pinterest, though I didn't follow their directions as I already had a night light on a switched cord so I just did it. Mustangs, I wish I could claim the idea. Awm, the above camera is a Kodak Brownie Hawkeye, I other shown to the right is a Kodak Duraflex II, next to it, but out the picture is an Argus 50mm. I'm hoping I have my Mom's Kodak 35mm and Dad's Movie camera in one of the containers I have with their things in the basement, but I've yet to take the time to go through all of them. Each time I do I get so teary that I have to stop. My folks also had a Brownie. If I remember correctly. It had the top that opened up to take the picture, so it could have been a Duraflex. I'll have to see if my older sister can remember. A friend told me about trend called TTV or through the lens, photography, where you us a digital camera rigged to take pictures through old cameras. I'm going to be trying that out soon....See MoreA view of night lights that once was clothed in nature

Ida, I’m pretty sure these are not the kind of solar lanterns you’re talking about. My neighbor gave them to me. My first thought was “They‘re not exactly my style” but I’ve really enjoyed looking out there and seeing them at night! The butterflies change color.

Lesli, like Bob, Rich has built a lot of things for your garden. One of the easier chores was stringing the lights.
...
Once he saw how much they add to the ambiance of the garden he strung five 25 ft. strands. You can see in the photo below how he put cables between trees on which to hang them.

The light they cast is gentle and not as bright as the iPhone camera picks up but plenty to stroll by and even have a party! After all this staying home I’m ready...
