I am such a believer in backyard lighting for your own enjoyment or for entertaining. There is a lot that goes into the perfect light - shape, colour, and how it impacts the ambience. These are GORGEOUS solar lights and they arrived well packed and easy to install. I positioned some along my back fence and others along the deck. They have an auto on and off function like most outdoor lanterns now (turns on automatically when the sun goes down and off when the sun comes up) so it makes operating super hassle free. The most impactful solar lights I have had and they compliment the string lights perfectly. These are luxury, elevated and look high end. A GREAT buy!
