light up your garden
 
Outdoor lights are now commonly used as a decorative addition to gardens and landscaping in order to draw attention to their best features and create aesthetically-pleasing effects. There are many different kinds of lighting you can use to create different effects, so here's a summary of some of the best.

Uplighting is most often used to highlight a particular piece of architecture or perhaps a sculpture. Because the light is cast upwards, the whole piece is illuminated clearly without the risk of shadow and it is a chance to really showcase a part of your garden. Uplighting can also sometimes be used on trees to create a spooky effect. This kind of exterior lighting is also known as accent lighting, as it highlights certain areas of your garden and gives you chance to leave the more unattractive features, such as a bin store or compost heap, in darkness.

Downlighting is another kind of accent lighting, which generally serves to light up a certain area of your garden, or a patio, decking area or path. Usually in the form of spotlights, these outdoor lights are practical and help you to see rather than simply illuminating attractive features of your garden. Decks can also be illuminated through ground lights or posts. The important thing when using spotlights is to make sure that they won't be shining in anybody's eyes, but these can usually be angled to suit.

Ground lights and posts are normally available in a variety of different colours and can be an attractive way of lighting up a path for you and your visitors to see where you are going. Ground lights also add a touch of elegance to your home and use cool glass so that they are safe if anybody walks over them, as well as using minimal power.
