3 STEPS FOR STRINGING OUTDOOR PATIO LIGHTS
Looking to create that festive or romantic lighting ambiance for your deck or patio? String outdoor lights may be just the trick. Besides creating a fun and inviting atmosphere, it also allows you to spend more time outdoors. Here are three steps to help you with the process:
STYLE OF LIGHTS – Your choice of lights depends on personal preference, but typically a bulb-style light works better and looks better for lighting your patio than your typical Christmas lights. Many outdoor lights are also available now with solar options – allowing for lighting in places that may have been difficult to get power to.
OTHER SUPPLIES - In order to string your outdoor lights, here are some supplies you might need: Hooks, Zip ties, Carabiners, and Extension cords.
STRINGING YOUR LIGHTS - There are several different ways you can decide how to hang your patio lights. A few popular options include:
- Tent or Maypole - This setup features multiple light strings anchored in a wheel arrangement from one central point.
- Horizon Point - This requires at least four locations to attach your lights to. This is typically the design used in professional installations for events and restaurant settings.
- Square or Grid - This involves hanging patio lights in straight lines across the length and width of your space or outlining just the perimeter of your space in a square shape.
- Zig Zag - This pattern is good for fully illuminating your space with a more interesting design.
