Lighting Your Patio with Ambiance
Once you have your patio furnished with the right outdoor furniture and you’re ready to entertain, don’t forget lighting to create the ambiance you want.
Most patios will have some type of lighting either on the wall of the house or perhaps a pole light, but these emit strong light that won’t really create any ambiance. For a softer source of lighting consider other solutions.
Outdoor string lights come in all kinds of styles these days. You can find lights to use outdoors in different colors, sizes and shapes. String these lights on the edge of the roof, from columns, or on an outdoor umbrella. If your party has a theme, you can find many styles of string lights to help you carry out your party theme. And if you have the right location, you can leave these lights strung for a soft glow on any evening, not just at party time.
Nothing helps to set a soft, romantic mood like candles. There are many types of candle holders for outdoor use that will provide protection from breezes that will blow out your candle light. So be sure to look for taller candle holders so the candles will stay lit. Place them in various areas to give a little light to different areas of the patio.
