A superb way to illuminate twinkling reflections of light around your garden while creating the perfect ambiance in the evening. Choosing to place hanging lanterns or large standing ones in your gazebo is sure to invoke a lovely, warm, homely feel or even an alfresco holiday vibe.

Wrapping outdoor fairy or string lights around the pillars or on the canopy of your gazebo will make it a magical and unique place to retreat or even eat in the evenings.
