Bring the Indoors Outside!

One of the big trends for 2016 is bringing elements of the outdoors inside, but did you know you can bring your indoors outside? You do need to be sure that the lighting items you use are wet rated, but there are probably more options than you realized!

Typically, outdoor fixtures are wall lanterns, hanging lanterns, flush mounts, or post tops. With the incorporation of LED, there are an increasing number of contemporary fixtures available that are either slimmer or provide lighting without a visible bulb.

If you enjoy grilling or sitting outdoors, consider an outdoor chandelier! You can find several types of chandeliers with varying styles and numbers of bulbs.

If you'd like to spend more time outdoors, but it's just too hot, try an outdoor fan. You'll find a variety of styles and sizes, from 15" wide to 60+" wide!

If you don't have an overhang, you can even use outdoor portable lamps. Some are available  for plug-in and some work with solar power.
