Is your Home Ready for a Summertime Party?

Planning to do an outdoor party in your terrace or courtyard?

Well, here are patio lighting decor ideas to make your parties look totally rocking. It is absolutely amazing to host a patio party at night during the spring or warm summer. The cool breeze and a full moon above will create a mesmerizing environment for the party.

Lighting is the key for any party. Properly placed lighting can define an outdoor patio while adding stylish charm, creating a comfortable outdoor space that allows you and your guests to enjoy the beauty of nature well into the evening.

A well-lighted front entrance enables you to accent your home’s design and greet visitors. Wall lanterns on each side of the door will give your home a warm, welcoming look, while assuring the safety of those who enter.


To conserve energy, consider post and wall lanterns that use LED or CFL light sources.

Dimmer controls aren't just for chandeliers and other interior lighting. Fitting your outdoor fixtures with dimmer controls will give you the flexibility to design a lighting plan with multiple uses and decorative effects.
                                                                               
Landscape lighting works with your other outdoor lighting to showcase your home and the surrounding grounds with a warm glow after the sun goes down.

For safety and the guarantee of a well cooked meal, don’t forget to add more light over the barbecue area. To accomplish this, install a series of recessed fixtures to provide enough light.

We have good news for anyone that doesn’t like mosquitoes. LED lights DO NOT attract mosquitoes. YAY!!!! Mosquitoes are attracted to fluorescent lights and other ultraviolet light sources; and LED lights do not produce ultraviolet light. 


Also, LED lights do not emit carbon dioxide, another reason these little guys are not attracted to LED lighting. This is great, huh?

In addition, pools can be illuminated with underwater LED lighting providing beauty and safety for evening entertaining.


Add a touch of your style to your outdoor living space with an outdoor fan.

Ceiling fans work just as well outside as they do in interior spaces. Particularly in a covered deck or patio spaces, fans offer a great way to circulate air and provide light. Whether traditional or modern, an outdoor ceiling fan will turn your outdoor area into a breezy oasis.

Is your patio ready for a summertime party? Hurry up and start making some changes, it’s time dust off that BBQ and get ready for great days of sunshine.
