Luminaries - Great for patio, or in a garden sitting space. Use tin coffee cans (or soup cans, if you hang them) and using a hammer and nail, poke holes. Use citronella candles and light them for a nighttime get-together -- they’re pretty and they keep the bugs away! Painting them ensures that they stay pretty during the daylight hours as well.
