Decorating with Curtain Lights

I'm sure there are a lot of people out there that get on Pinterest and other websites looking for inspiration on how to decorate their wedding. Well, we are here to offer a fantastic suggestion, curtain lights. They are so pretty and simple to hang at almost any venue.

Curtain lights are basically built like a standard mini light string, just in a curtain type design. They come on both green and white wire with 150 clear lights. Each drop is about 6" apart and the bulbs have a spacing of about 6" also. Overall the entire set is about 6' wide and 5' long. You can also plug two sets end-to-end, this way you can make a lighted background a little wider.Curtain lights are also lightweight and so simple to hang. You can use 3M adhesive hangers, heavy duty tape, making a frame or even hanging them from a drop ceiling.

Some of the most common ways that people use these are for weddings and special occasions, as backgrounds. Hanging them behind the head table at a wedding reception, at the ceremony behind the happy couple for stunning photos or even for the background of a beautiful photo booth. If you want to soften the glow of the lights, you can cover them with some sheer or color fabric that matches you decor. The possibilities are endless for using curtain lights.
