The summer period is coming and the sun is showing itself more and more, time for some patio lights string ideas. It is time for sitting outside with a drink and some nice food. This can be on your balcony or in your garden. Patio lights can create a nice ambiance for the summer evenings. In this post I will show you different ways on how to decorate your patio.
Patio Lights String Ideas
1. Patio lights strings ideas backyards
If you have a fence in your garden you can put some patio lights on your fence to brighten up your backyard.
2. Patio lights string ideas planters
If you would like to put some lights around a specific area you can put some planters in your backyard where you can position the patio lights on.
You can use planters to hang patio lights around a dining table in your garden for example. If it is possible to connect the patio lights from one place on the fence to the other, this is a possibility too.
3. Patio lights strings ideas trees
If you don’t want to place planters and have trees then trees can function as natural planters. The patio lights can be hanged from your tree to your house. Two trees can also be a good way to station your patio lights.

Patio lights or small lights are also nice withing your home or on your balcony.
5. Covered porch
If you have a covered porch or an outside porch this is a nice spot to put some lights too to make a cozy feeling. You can put some chairs on the porch to make it feel as if it is an extension of the house, like another cozy room.
You can hang the patio lights alongside the porch, above the porch. Whatever you like.
Tip:
Keep in mind to purchase outdoor lights when you will put the lights outside. The lights have to be able to handle the weather like rain.
