Can anyone recommend some good outdoor string lights that I can put up around my decking?

Question

I want subtle ambience....not solar...nor do I want to start cutting up the deck in order to insert the lights. Any ideas appreciated.

Answer 1

Why not use tealights in recycled jars? better for the environment and if you use the citronella ones you'll keep flies at bay too.

Answer 2

The variety in string lights likely numbers in the hundreds. I suspect it's a personal choice issue. I happen to like the Chili Pepper ones.

  The fact that they are all "String" lights offers the opportunity to STRING them. That could be as simple as cup hooks, velcro, staples, wrapping around a top rail, etc. Certainly a power source should be handy.

  Ambiance could be as simple as mini Christmas tree strings, using clear/white light  bulbs.
