Summer is coming, and the garden will become the main place to relax, where you will look for cool in the hot evenings. And because you can not stay in the darkness, no matter how romantic the light of the moon would seem, here are some solutions for the illumination of the garden and patio:
LED STRIPS
A first option would be delimiting the spaces using LED strips. They are actually some light hoses like the ones used on Christmas for decorating the outside of the house, only in this case you use them to mark the edges of the alley or the pool or the access steps. The solution is also one of aesthetics, because these light strips are also decorative, giving shine to the outer space.
You can also dress the trunk of the trees in the garden, or you can outline the edge of a bench, but use them sparingly so as to not overdecorate the patio.
LAMPS WITH SOLAR ENERGY
When the price of electricity is increasing, why not use lamps solar energy for the terrace and garden lighting. It’s true that there are slightly more expensive, but you will recoup the initial investment quickly. Their battery is charging during the day, and in the evening you enjoy good hours of light. In addition, you will not have a system of unesthetic cables that power them. Moreover, LED lamps are also mobile, so you’ll be able to put them when and where you want.
SPOTS
Another elegant option are the spots. Unfortunately, if you already paved or cemented the courtyard or terrace, it will be hard to fit them. However, their advantage is that they doesn’t occupy much space and are very modern, giving the place an air of sophistication. You can choose to fix them on ground, beyond the edge of the alley.
PILLARS
For garden, especially if you have many tall plants, choose lighting pillars, which you can find in stores also in the version with solar battery. You can install one near a bench or a swing to create a romantic atmosphere.
