DIY Idea: Outdoor Light String

I spotted this idea on Rahael Ray's Everyday.  
They used holiday-style white lights and added colorful baking cups.
I love this because you can change out the baking cups for any backyard party you might throw.  
The options for colors and patterns of baking cups are endless!  
Rachael's site suggests shopping here. I love here.
I wish I would have seen this before the 4th of July! These baking cups from Bake it Pretty would have made the perfect light string for our barbeque! Maybe next year...

    This is so clever! I've seen party lights with tissue paper and vellum, but baking cups are a great idea!

    Wow Sandi, you have such talent! I sent a link to the 60th bday party to all my Facebook friends. SO inspiring.

    I will come back to your site for DIY ideas often- I love the cheerful colors that seem to inspire you too!

    Who would have thought that baking cups can be used as a lighting fixture? But I think with little creativity, even the smallest detail can be used to make the space look beautiful. :-)
