giant luminaries . .

 These giant luminaries are so easy and really cool.

 I bought a lighting panel from Lowes for about $6,

 it's really just a big piece of flexible plastic.

 I picked up some industrial strength Velcro,

 cut it into strips,

stuck them along one side.

 then put the edges together making a circle.

A little battery operated LED lamp worked perfectly,

 I placed it into the center. 

You can use them indoors,

 or outdoors, either way they are a really modern and hip lighting solution.

** The best part is you can undo the Velcro and store them completely flat.  Super cool and super easy.
