If by chance you read or subscribe to the Cville Buzz you notice Jim’s articles on our pond. We built a small pond in our backyard in the spring for our 8 goldfish, but mostly for my husband. It has been quite an adventure and now we have an additional 14 baby goldfish. How did that happen?
Anyway, I moved my parents’ very old metal glider in front of our pond for better enjoyment. We also have frogs so there is lots of action. We define outdoor living and outdoor spaces in many ways. For me, my definition is the word calming. Sipping coffee or a cocktail with a good book in our “outdoor living room” pushes all stress away. My husband and I enjoy date time in our lovely oasis after work. Our oasis is a great place to socialize with family, friends and neighbors.
Many consumers are designing such places to enjoy and to add to the value of their homes and lighting is a key factor in designing exterior spaces. An evening meal can be enjoyed under the stars and becomes a true luxury experience but dining in the dark requires a bit more light. We offer exterior chandeliers, pendants, lanterns, table lamps and tape lighting-all rated for outdoor use. Just as we desire comfortable outside furniture, we also appreciate that special ambient lighting. A few of our vendors who provide great outdoor lighting for such spaces are Hinkley, Capital, Artcraft, Elk, Minka Lavery and Livex.Our online store lists these brands along with others and you are just one click away from finding the right fixture for your special outdoor space.
