You’ve put all the hard work into creating the perfect outdoor space that is stylishly prepared for long, summer days. But what about the nights? Give your garden the ability to transform from a sun-lounging haven to the spot for entertainment, with some magical, ambience-boosting outdoor lights. Keep your alfresco evenings with family & friends rolling until after dark with our simple, easy-to-achieve outdoor lighting ideas.
Outdoor Living Room Style
If you’re a fan of the highly favoured outdoor/indoor trend, and have created yourself a snug garden living area with cosy outdoor sofas & rugs, then indoor-style lighting is the perfect finishing touch for your space. Look for tall floor lamps & classic shade-shapes to complete your living-room-like look.

Glow Up Your Greenery
Add a touch of magic to your outdoor evenings by adorning your trees or greenery with twinkling, hanging lights. If your garden space is lacking foliage, then instead use hanging lights to add some sparkle to otherwise empty fencing or walls.
