Solar patio lighting enhances your landscaping and protects your safety.
Solar Patio Lighting – Glowing In The Night
When the sun goes down and there’s not much moonlight, be prepared with solar patio lighting. Your gathering or party need not come to a halt because it’s dark. Solar light systems are easy to install and easy on the budget. This applies to both when you buy them and when you use them, because they use the power of the sun gathered during the day. They’re also decorative and add another layer of security to your home, patio, deck, porch, lanai or verandah.
Safety Is A Bonus
Outdoor lighting helps to keep those who would harm your or your family at bay. No crook wants to take the chance of being seen where they shouldn’t be. These lights also aid in extra lighting for motion cameras, providing a better view of those who might want to intrude on your home.
Personal Safety
Too many falls result when a person can’t see where they’re walking. With solar lights, from the moment the sun goes down you’re assured of knowing where you step. This prevents accidents from happening for everyone.
No More Forgetting To Turn On Your Outside Lights
Solar lighting is convenient all the way around, especially since you don’t have to remember to turn them on or off. These lights do it automatically, so that coming home after dark is no problem, they’re on. Being able to see your keyhole for placing the key in the lock from the glow of the lamp is comforting too. And during the day these lights do nothing but absorb sunlight, readying themselves for their job when the sun goes down.
Solar Crackle Glass Patio Lighting
These solar crackle glass orbs actually change color as they glow, setting a beautiful scene on your patio, verandah, or lanai. Put them down your walk from the patio to the garden and watch your yard take on a fairy land look. As with all solar lighting, you never have to turn them on or off! They gather solar energy during the day, turn on at night, and when the sun rises they turn off, ready to re-charge with solar energy for another night. All without effort on your part.

Tree Lighting! Have You Heard of It?
One of the things people like to do these days, is to have outdoor parties with hanging solar lights in their trees.

This is only one of the styles available on Amazon, and the ones shown here may do double duty as staked lights or hanging lanterns.

These solar lights are wonderful! They are so ecologically sound, beautiful and inexpensive. I can just see how easy it would be to decorate a party or even Christmas with these lights!
I just love solar lights and when I originally wrote this article, it was summer. Of course there’s no time better than summertime to have patio, porch, verandah or lanai parties. With these lights you’d need little other decoration, they’re so beautiful. Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting! 🙂 <3
Ooooh, I love that tabletop light! Very pretty 🙂
I like that one too, Kyla. Wouldn’t that make a beautiful table in the nighttime, for folks to sit around, have a few drinks and visit with each other? I do love atmosphere, and that light sure does it for me.
I was actually imagining a twilight garden party with multiple tables, all set with that lamp. I think it would be enchanting!
Kyla, I think the same way. That particular table lamp really appeals to me. Even though many of the other solar lights I show are more toward the practical side of safety, that little lamp really draws me in. I’m thinking of gifting a pair of them to my daughter who has a large wrought iron patio table that would house those lamps perfectly! Thanks my friend. 🙂 <3
I love solar lights … Alas we are in the shade so have never succeeded w our solar lights!
Awww Tracey, Savvy Age, I’m sorry and sad for that! That’s the only drawback to solar lighting, you must have sun. I figure folks in states that have little sun will never benefit from solar power and that’s a shame. Is there a possibility of cutting back trees? That might provide more sun for you, but I agree it’s a drastic step! Thanks for the comment my friend! 🙂
I really need to invest in some solar lighting, especially around our front porch steps. One recent early morning, I missed the bottom step and fell. Fortunately I wasn’t seriously hurt, but if there had been light there it wouldn’t have happened. Thanks for these excellent suggestions, Nancy!
Outside lighting is really important from so many angles, Susan. But for me, the most important IS the personal safety. At my age, to fall is usually a very serious thing; broken bones become involved which sometimes leads to worse things. I think solar lighting is the way to go, because they cost nothing to use, and you never have to remember to turn them on or off. The convenience AND the beauty is worth what you spend. You are so kind to comment on my posts, thank you my friend. 😀
