As any artist knows, good lighting is truly everything. A simple string of globe bulbs can really do wonders to lighten up your space, especially if you drape them around a dark tree trunk or in a dull corner! Globe bulbs are the latest trend in backyard decor and here are a few great ways that I like to utilize them!

First things first, it can be tough to find a set of globe bulbs that are fit for the outdoors! You wouldn’t want to string a set of indoor lights, outdoors so you need to make sure your lights are listed as outdoor patio lights. For my own lighting endeavors, I like to use these set of globe bulbs from Amazon. They’re a bit more expensive but I think the added expense is totally worth it. Purchase them here.

Now that you’ve found which set of globe lights to buy, it’s time to start thinking about how you are going to decorate with your globe lights! Outdoor string lights like this are incredibly versatile but it’s always best to know how to use them to best accentuate your yard.

Globe Bulbs – Up A Tree Trunk

Draw everyone’s attention to one of the most commanding features of your yard: the tree trunks! Wind a set of globe lights around the rough tree trunk for a twinkling accessory that will add a magical touch to your outdoor space.

Globe Bulbs – Around The Sitting Area

If there’s one area of your backyard that definitely needs some mood lighting it’s definitely your sitting area! Globe lights look absolutely incredible hanging from an outdoor umbrella or around the cabinets of your outdoor bar! Plus, if you take a closer look, you can see a set of globe lights wrapped around the tree trunk in the background. See, I told you it was a good idea. 😉

Globe Bulbs – In the Greenery Of Trees

Wrapping them around the trunk of the tree isn’t the only way to use globe lights to brighten up your yard! Hang them in the leaves and greenery, as well! Take care to secure your globe lights so they don’t break any branches or crush any leaves. The point here is to use globe lights to enhance the beauty of your backyard, not tarnish it!

Globe Bulbs – Hanging From a Pergola

When my husband and I built our pergola a few years ago, one of the things I was most excited to do was decorate with a set of string lights. Create a romantic atmosphere with a set of globe lights hung from the pillars of your pergola. Simply hang them from nails to create the cool draped look like the lights below.

These massive globe lights actually change colors and they’re a great addition to any backyard! I love how these homeowners used them to accessorize their backyard! Purchase them for $30.26 here.
