Home Improvements

Over the weekend we (Handsome) installed these little guys. We've been wanting landscape lighting for a long time. We made sure we ran the electric when we added the third driveway because we knew someday we'd need it. We didn't want to put up Solar....they never seem to give enough light and always look so "cheesy" to us. So.... while out Saturday on a completely different mission I spotted these on clearance at the local hardware store. The color we wanted, the type we wanted, low voltage also..... what was wrong with them was my first question. Could we be that lucky? Turns out YES! we could. We bought 2. Handsome got them installed and being the super smart crafty guy he is, he hooked them up with a photocell so they come on & go off automatically. We were a bit worried that at night they wouldn't put out enough light but nope, they work great, look great and I'm so pleased with them. Small simple things that make me happy.

Thanks for visiting Sweet Tea--and complimenting my toes! My poor nails haven't seen the light of day in over 10 years--always have some shade of red on them.

Love the lights--they look great. Don't you love it when a plan comes together?
