Start by cleaning the mason jars thoroughly to ensure they are free of dust and residue.

Place a set of solar-powered fairy lights inside each mason jar, ensuring the solar panel is positioned at the top for maximum sunlight exposure.

Hang the jars from your porch using the hooks, ensuring they are positioned to receive ample sunlight during the day.
