Part of the beauty of having an outdoor space, be it a yard, a deck or even a balcony, is being able to enjoy it in the evenings. Enter the matter of lighting and ambiance. Lanterns, as it happens, can provide both.
You can find styles for hanging, floor placement or tabletops. As a bonus, you can add a citronella candle on open lantern designs to fight off those pesky mosquitoes too.
and a diy project – found at a subtle revelry









These are great little sculptures! XO, MJ
One of my dreams if to some day have a big beautiful tree with lots of lanterns around it. Sigh. Thank you for the reminder
I’m loving the simplicity of that Glass DIY and the intricate details of the exotic ones. Decisions. Decisions.
I’ve recently purchased white lanterns and everyone seems to love them ! love your round up!
Oh that mod lantern is super cool. I still don’t have an outdoor entertaining space (yes the doves still own the patio) to put lanterns on but if I did, I would pick that one
All lanterns would look equally good hung in a cluster on my imaginary porch. The DIY version is fab too!
Love all these lanterns! Now just need a porch…haha.
I really like that woven version a lot. The citronella is a great idea!
I love soft outdoor lighting in the form of candles and fairy lights. The Moroccan lanterns are my favourite. x
My favourite has to be the ‘au natural’ lanterns, how pretty, I bet they let of such a lovely warm glow, I’d love a set in my garden for a summer evening with friends
