Solar Fairy Lights are a hassle free, mains power free way of providing flexible lighting solutions when electricity is not an option, or for those of you who just want to be kind to the environment.  Solar panels charge the battery each day, and at night auto sensors turn on a twinkling night display of LED fairy lights. 

Below is ten of the most common and not so common ways people utilise their Solar Fairy Lights.  The top three listed below are the most popular, being Christmas, Weddings and Parties. 

1. Christmas Decoration

Wrap multicoloured Solar Christmas string lightsaround your veranda, porch, patio, eaves or roof.  They also look great on your fence, columns and posts around your home to help ring in the festive season.  Try an outdoor Christmas tree or even on the indoor tree, as long as you can find a sunny spot for the solar panel, the Christmas decorating options are truly endless.

2. Outdoor Weddings

Picture a beautiful outdoor wedding by an enchanted forest, lake, on a beach or in a park.  As the sun goes down, you can set solar fairy lights to twinkle and create a beautiful setting on your wedding day.  Wrap it around the pergola, outdoor trees, shade sails, umbrellas or topiary trees.  The lights do not require power, so the options are only limited by your imagination.

3. Party Lights

What a great way to create a party vibe.  Pick out some LED colours that suit the theme of your evening.  Solar Fairy Lights can generally be found in any colour combination of red, blue, yellow, green and white.  Create a pathway to the entrance of the party.  Place them on outdoor trees or on the edge of tables and fences.

4. Outdoor Landscaping

Use Solar Fairy Lights every day of the year.  If you are the sort of person that loves to relax outdoors on dusk, then consider placing a permanent feature somewhere in your garden, pergola, patio, porch or veranda.  Dragonfly and Butterfly accessories create a wonderful garden display.

5. Camping

Tired of carrying the torch around to find your way?  Light the pitch of your roof with solar fairy lights.  They provide a beautiful glow that will help guide the way back to your resting place for the evening.  They can also be placed close by to the campfire to create the perfect evening ambience.

6. Boating

Want to create a romantic setting on a boat.  Solar Fairy Lights can be wrapped around the mast or cabin to provide some extra twinkle to the evening.

7. Restaurants

Setting up a new restaurant, or trying to create the right atmosphere for your guests.  Solar Fairy lights are extremely versatile because you don’t need to remember to turn them on while you are busy preparing your restaurant for the evening rush.  Set the lighting up around the entrance or in trees if you have an outdoor setting.

8. Shop Fronts

Ask permission of your Body Corporate to decorate your shopping precinct with Solar Christmas Lights during the holiday season or for any other special occasion or festival.  They will draw attention to your shop or business in the evening creating more awareness of your location.  Remember, if you trade during the evening, shoppers in a good mood spend more money!

9. Night time Markets

Do you earn some spare cash selling at the night time markets or bazaar?  Decorate your stall so that it stands out in the evening and buyers will be charmed into buying your wares.

10. In Children’s bedrooms

Small sets of solar fairy lights of 50 LED’s or less create beautiful night lights for small children.  The slow lighting mode will lull them into sleep!  Smaller is better in this instance as you will need to move them outside to recharge every few nights if you don’t have a sunny window in the bedroom.  Decorate them with solar light accessories.  Flowers, butterflies, dragonflies are just a few of the options.
