As the night’s get darker, hallways can also feel a little colder or isolated compared to the rest of your home. Wrapping string lights around your banister will give a wonderful glow to a space you probably never pay attention to and add even more encouragement going to bed! You can either use mains string lights or battery operated string lights if you don’t have a plug socket close by. Our copper or silver fairy lights are perfect to use as staircase lights as they have a bendable wire so you can easily manipulate them around the shape of your banister.
Create a Magical Entrance with Sphere With Lights
Imagine your guests walking into a garden or hallway illuminated by glowing spheres. The Sphere With Lights is perfect for setting an enchanting tone right at the start. How to use it: Place these glowing spheres along your pathway, dot them around your garden, or even cluster them at your entryway for a dramatic effect. Their warm, sparkly glow creates an inviting and atmospheric vibe, turning your entrance into a showstopper. Bonus: these spheres are versatile for both indoor and outdoor use, so you can carry the magic wherever you like.
Add Drama Overhead with Silver Starburst Hanging Light
Turn your ceiling into a starry spectacle! The Silver Starburst Hanging Light creates a dazzling focal point, perfect for decorating for New Year indoors. How to use it: Hang one—or better yet, a cluster—of these radiant starburst lights above your dining table or dance floor. The 200 warm LED lights give off an elegant glow that’s both classy and immersive. With its extra-long lead, this piece offers flexibility for any space, creating a captivating vibe for your celebration.
Elevate Your Windows with Metal Silver Star With Lights
Windows are often overlooked, but they’re the perfect spot to add a touch of magic. The Metal Silver Star With Lights transforms your windows into glowing works of art. How to use it: Position these stars in your windows, allowing the soft illumination to spill outwards, creating a warm, welcoming glow visible from the outside. Indoors, they add a stunning decorative element to your living or dining area, blending subtle brilliance with timeless elegance.
Transform Your Space with Waterfall Fairy Lights
Turn any corner into a mesmerising cascade of lights with Waterfall Fairy Lights. These lights are perfect for making your decor feel playful yet sophisticated. How to use it: Hang them over a fireplace, doorway, or a blank wall to create a stunning waterfall effect. Outdoors, they can drape from pergolas or trees, adding a dreamy touch to your garden party. Their cascading design brings warmth and atmosphere, ideal for New Year’s Eve decorations.
Add a Twinkling Touch with Starburst Copper Fairy Lights
For a touch of twinkle that’s equal parts subtle and stunning, look no further than Starburst Copper Fairy Lights. How to use it: Run them along your table runner, wrap them around picture frames, or even place them in a clear vase for a cosy centrepiece. These delicate copper starbursts emit a warm glow that feels intimate and inviting—perfect for setting the tone of celebration and joy.
Display Photos or Pictures with Clip Fairy Lights
Do you have a wall of your favourite photos at home? Make even more of a feature of these by using fairy lights to illuminate them on the wall. Alternatively, if you have photos that you would like to hang somewhere but don’t have any frames, why not try using our String Lights with Clips. These lights are so multifaceted and can be hung up across a wall or even on a display board and the clips can be used to hang photos, artwork, cards, invites and more.
Hang Feature Fairy Lights Along Bi-Fold Doors
Bifold or patio doors might give you the most lovely outlook during the day but without blinds in the evening they can be very dark. Try adding string lighting across the top of the doors to give a lovely warm feeling to the room at night. The Pom Pom Lights in particular also look lovely in the day even when they’re switched off.
Spell Words with Fairy Lights
Why not create your own letter lights by using wire lights to spell words on the wall. This also means you can be as creative as you want with the words and change them to suit your mood. You could spell the word ‘Love’ or even just make a heart shape which would be equally as impactful. Our mains wire fairy lights are perfect for creating this look and can be left on all the time to highlight this wall art.
Light a Gorgeous Table Centre or Console Table Display with Fairy Lights
This is one of the first places that I started using String lighting. I had been out for dinner at a restaurant and loved the glow that the fairy lights gave to the table. The next time we had friends for dinner, I decorated the table with a string of battery operated fairy lights, candles and sparkly gems and had so many lovely comments. I now have a few different sets of fairy lights that I use for different occasions and also add different accessories to the table depending on the season. COVID has meant that we have all spent more time staying in, rather than eating out, so why not make a feature of your table and make another night in, feel that bit more like a special occasion.
Light Up Shelves
Shelves are often overlooked when it comes to decoration, but adding fairy lights to your shelves can bring a warm, inviting glow to your space. Whether you have books, plants, or decorative items on your shelves, a string of lights can highlight these items and create a cosy atmosphere. Our battery-operated fairy lights are perfect for this, as they can be easily arranged and won't require a nearby power source.
Drape Along Headboard
Your bedroom can become a serene retreat by draping fairy lights along the headboard. This can create a soft, romantic glow that's perfect for winding down in the evening. Our Teardrops White Fairy Lights add an elegant touch and can transform your bedroom into a dreamy oasis. Check out all our bedroom fairy lights and for more ideas on how to use fairy lights in your bedroom, have a read of our blog- Transform your bedroom with this 10 bedroom fairy light ideas.
Display Along a Table
For dinner parties or casual get-togethers, displaying fairy lights along the length of your table can set the mood perfectly. Simply lay them out in a straight line or weave them around table decorations. Our Confetti Fairy Lights add a warm, inviting glow that enhances any dining experience.
Hang Around a Pergola
If you have an outdoor pergola, fairy lights can transform it into a magical evening retreat. Hang them along the beams and let them twinkle above as you relax or entertain guests. Our Solar Cluster Silver Wire Fairy Lights are IP44 rated weather-resistant and ideal for outdoor use, providing a beautiful glow that complements the natural surroundings.
Use Them Outside
Fairy lights aren't just for indoor spaces. Use them outside to light up your garden, patio, or balcony. Whether wrapped around trees, draped over bushes, or hung along fences, our Flexi Lights are designed to withstand the elements and add a festive touch to your outdoor spaces all year round.
