How to Create a Magical Garden Ambiance this Summer with LED Lighting

Summer is the ideal time for outdoor entertaining. Cookouts and pool parties are not only fun but provide the perfect opportunity for the whole family to come together and create some special memories.

Outdoor lighting can add a whole new dimension to your yard, pool or front garden at this time of year, not only extending entertainment into the long, cool evenings, but also giving you the ability to create a truly magical atmosphere around your home at night.

Endless Possibilities with Landscape Lighting

In recent years, LED lighting has totally revolutionized the possibilities offered by landscape illumination. Thanks to their enormous flexibility, LED lights provide home owners with the freedom to create some truly enchanted outdoor spaces while also being safe, reliable and energy efficient. Now that’s got to be a win-win scenario!

Tips for Transforming Your Garden into a Truly Stunning Night Time Space

If you have a flair for the dramatic, then LED lights offer the ideal opportunity to create a statement using uplighting or silhouette lighting. Sculptures, statues or trees can be brought to life with a little help from some strategically positioned spotlights designed to cast interesting shadows or emphasize special features. LED spotlights are ideal for this purpose as they never overheat, making them very safe to use near flammable objects such as wood or foliage.

On the other hand, if you prefer a softer, more romantic atmosphere, then why not consider some tree lighting? Alternatively, you could string some LED fairy lights along a canopy or awning for a starry effect. LED lights can easily be threaded together to create a diffuse, warming effect that’s sure to add magic to any garden or outdoor area. The good news is that LED lights are fade resistant, weatherproof and will barely register on your home’s electrical system due to their low wattage.
