Stacey Solomon is a busy mum to five children, but she's still found the time to complete a garden renovation project at her and Joe Swash's Pickle Cottage, and judging by her new Instagram Reel, the task has turned out to be a bit of a labour of love.

"I DID IT," she pens in the Reel caption. "Brought Pickle Cottage Greenhouse Back To Life. 30 hours in 30 seconds. Honestly this was the hardest painting I’ve EVER done. But it was SO worth it."

The short clip shows the star transforming an old and dirty glass greenhouse into a chic indoor plant space complete with a hanging wicker chair, inside and outside fairy lighting and wicker accessories.

She goes on to ask her followers: "What do you think? I love it! This has been here since we moved in & we’ve grown our tomatoes in it but I was starting to hate going in there & I knew it could be so much more so I needed to sort it out! I can not even believe the before videos! I honestly am so happy with what a bit of paint (and hours and hours of time) can achieve! I Can’t wait to hide in here on a regular basis."

As you'd expect, Stacey's followers have been incredibly complimentary about the greenhouse transformation, with plenty taking to the comment section to ask where they can get some of the accessories she used to spruce the space up. An overwhelming number specifically want to know where to buy the rattan lamps that hang from the greenhouse's glass ceiling. We've done some digging and we can reveal those exact lights are Rattan LED Solar Pendant Lamp from Value Lights, £49.99 here each.

The best thing about the lights, other than the chic look of the rattan material, is the fact that they run fully from solar energy, meaning they won't be adding to your electricity bill – ideal as the cost of utilities escalates. They also give 8-10 hours of light for every 6-8 hours of solar charging.

If your budget doesn't quite stretch to £50, or if you need to buy multiple lights for an outdoor area, there are cheaper solar-run lights on the market that give a similar effect to Stacey's. We suggest taking a look at Lights4fun's Lotus Solar Wicker Pendant Light, £19.99 here, and Lightinthebox's Outdoor Solar Power Hanging Light Lantern, £17 here.
