7 unusual fairy lights

Fairy lights make any outdoor space much cosier. But they only really make my eyes light up when they also impress me with an unusual look.
1. "Circus" makes lights dance
The individual lights of the multicoloured "Circus" light chain are reminiscent of hoop skirts. They are made up of pin-shaped LED bulbs and plastic lampshades. The best thing about them is that they blend seamlessly into any outdoor area thanks to their delicate pastel colours.
2. "Globe Shade" takes the party to a higher level
With the "Globe Shade" fairy lights, you can create an accent and provide spotlighting. The black metal hats camouflage the lamp socket and only direct the light downwards. Because the light bulbs are still slightly visible, the design goes perfectly with garden furniture with an industrial look or garden lounges with a minimalist look.
3. "Cesta" creates summer vibes
Few things evoke summer like woven raffia or straw. Perhaps that's why the individual bulbs of the "Cesta" outdoor light chain have been given a straw hat. In any case, it is a perfect match for rattan furniture and boho-style outdoor areas.
4. "Cage" emphasises the shape
The Star Trading brand has reworked the classic and added a black frame to the bulbs, which frames the light source. This makes "Cage" look a lot more exciting than the standard version and projects delicate shadow patterns onto the wall or floor.
5. "Glassy Light" delights with a delicate style
"Glassy Light" manages without any colour at all: An abstract line pattern makes the model an eye-catcher, even though it is almost transparent. It gives the lampshade structure and allows the light to shimmer gently through. Thanks to its transparency, it can be combined with all furnishing styles.
6. "Beer garden chain" with style
7. "Atria" scores with mandalas
The holes in the LED light chain from Schöneberger form a pattern that resembles mandalas. They create a soft glow and play of light on the wall or floor when the wind picks up. Nice detail: the surface of the metal shades also shimmers during the day.
