One thing you need to know about me is that I’m a big fan of lighting. I don’t know if it’s because I married an electrician or because I’m still a teensy bit afraid of the dark, but adding outdoor lights was a non-negotiable when we bought our house in 2020. However, I’m not ashamed to admit that I made some serious buying mistakes - and there are many things I wish I knew before buying outdoor solar lights.
Although there are countless garden lighting ideas out there, solar lights have always been at the top of my list. As I’m constantly on a mission to save energy at home, being able to add aesthetic (and practical) lighting to my garden and front porch without increasing my energy bills was a major plus. Plus, garden solar lighting comes in many different shapes and forms - from playful festoon lights to clever solar lights that lead you down the garden path.
