I think lanterns and string lights become the most interesting of all the lighting types available. It is because of their flexibility in the placement. The first simple example is about how they can be placed indoors and outdoors. Then, for both locations, you can spread them anywhere such as on the table, ceiling, wall, curtain, tree, just anywhere! Also, you can use them as a decorative decoration and even add them to other objects as additional ornaments. It is really interesting how the lanterns and string lights can function and be used in various products and creations.
Here, we are going to show you some examples of how lanterns and string lights are applied both indoors and outdoors.
Indoor Application
You can use the lanterns and string lights as the layering lighting because commonly, indoor lighting should be bright. Otherwise, the lanterns and string lights will have the dim light characteristics. It means that you can’t use them as the main lighting in the room. Besides the layering lighting, you can also use them as decorative lighting to beautify the decoration.

Outdoor Application
Lanterns and string lights can be beautifully applied to your outdoors just like the indoors. You can install or put the lanterns and string lights on the table of your patio, on the ground area, on the tree, and in any other spots that you need. Here are examples of the lanterns and string lights applied outdoors.
