Antique LED Bulbs

You can quickly boost any fixture or lamp’s style with antique bulbs. Swap basic light bulbs for the warm glow and unique shape of replica Edison bulbs. Most antique bulbs have a slightly amber tint for aesthetic in addition to their 2200-2400-Kelvin color temperature.  If you’re concerned about your décor color not playing well with that yellowish light, opt for antique LED bulbs with clear finishes in warm 2700K or bright 3000K color temperature.

Patio Light Sets

An outdoor lighting upgrade doesn’t have to mean a day spent in the hot sun. Quickly transform your backyard with patio string light sets. Since the incandescent or LED bulbs are already included, you just need to screw them in and hang up your new lighting. If you need a post to hang your light from, you can build one. Head to your local home improvement store for wooden posts, c-hook screws, large planter pots, and quick concrete. After you screw the c-hooks to the top of the wood post, mix the quick concrete in the planter.  Set the post inside the planter and use scrap wood, or painter’s tape for lighter posts, to hold it in place while the concrete dries for 20-40 minutes.  If you fill the planter only partially with concrete, you can drill holes just above the cement line for drainage. Then add pebbles, potting soil, and your favorite greenery to make your post double as a flower bed.

LED Tape Light

You can heighten the décor of any space by using LED tape light as accent lighting. Place these convenient strip lights under book shelves, kitchen cabinets, your TV, or even under the lip of the pool! For a length of 16 feet or less, LED tape light is easier to manage and assemble. True to its name, the adhesive tape on the back of these strip lights makes mounting simple. Use L, T, or plus sign-shaped connectors to create a wide range of configurations with lengths of tape light. For outdoor lighting and places where water is sure to find you, use waterproof LED strip lights. Although these strip lights don’t have the sticky backing, they make up for it by being submersible up to six feet deep; perfect for that nighttime pool party.
