Is There a Difference Between Indoor and Outdoor String Lights?

There is big difference between indoor and outdoor string lights, so always check to make sure you have obtained the correct string lights. Indoor lights would be unsafe to use outdoors and vice versa, so always use the right type of lights.

Customers should consider more things before hanging up their string lights, especially if the lights will be put in a home with pets or small children. If possible, please keep string lights out of reach of children and pets. If not, do not leave the lights unsupervised when children and pets are nearby.

What Are the Different Types of String Lights?

String lights are available in various shapes and sizes these days, so you will find many different options when you shop for string lights at Spotlight! Below, we have described each type of string lights in detail, so be sure to read on if you are unsure which string lights you want to get from our store.

Customers who want the most sophisticated and elegant Line String Lights

Straight line string lights are usually the type of string lights that provide you with the most versatility. The lights are scattered across a straight cable, which means you can easily drape them in a location of your choice.

The light bulbs on straight line string lights can be variable. Customers can acquire normal small bulbs, but also bulbs in special shapes such as stars, balls, snowflakes, skulls, and much more. So, if you are looking for a selection of novelty string lights, you will undoubtedly find it in the straight line string lights section.

In addition to the lightbulbs, the wire of straight line string lights can be variable too. Customers can get the traditional Christmas option, which is a wire covered in green plastic, but also a copper wire which adds a lot more warmth to the string lights.

Net Lights

Another great option to decorate your home is a selection of net lights. Opposed to straight line string lights, net lights hang vertically from the wire in a diagonal pattern - this provides a net-like look for the string lights.

Most people use net lights on the inside of their window frames - this provides the window with quite a festive look. Of course, net lights are also popular as a wall decoration, especially amongst teens.

Curtain Lights

Curtain lights are often confused with net light, since the lights also hang vertically from the wire. However, net lights also have a diagonal pattern, while curtain lights hang straight down from the wire. The use of curtain lights is quite like net lights, since they are also used on the inside of window frames or walls. In some cases, the longest versions of curtain lights are used as room separators.
