Fire Pit using String lights…

Keep a Firepit glowing all season with Copper-Wire Lights loosely draped over a pile of Wooden Logs in a Cast Iron Fire Bowl. Use a battery-powered strand or conceal the extension cord around a less-traveled side of the pit….

Add Lights to a Firepit instead of burning a real Fire.
