Adorable!! The lights are teeny tiny, and they do light up automatically with the solar power. I will admit it took a little while and some tangling with a few curse words but I finally got them all unwrapped and put out on my balcony. The wire is especially helpful! I feel like they’re awfully small for the amount of money I paid. I ended up ordering two more sets. What you see in the photos above is 3 strands of lights. Once I put the solar stick into the ground I’ve never had to do anything else. They are sweet, but I’m looking for something a little bigger to add for actual light. If you want just a little hint of light on your space this won’t do it but it will show a nice effect. ￼￼￼￼￼￼
