7. Hang them above your dining table

This is a more low maintenance take on the chandelier idea — just hang a few strands of lights above the dining room table to give off a candlelight vibe. Serve food family style beneath for a Bohemian look that’s oh-so-cozy.

8. Border a mirror with them

Turn your mirror into a lighting source by decorating your bedroom mirror with a string of fairy lights  — simply drape them around the perimeter of the mirror. It’ll add a sense of glamour and has a Hollywood dressing room vibe, so that you’ll feel like Marilyn Monroe when you’re getting ready to go out. Plus, it’ll brighten up your reflection, adding a glow to your face and your bedroom.

9. Make wall art

The beauty of string lights is that you can shape them into anything your heart desires. You can do an abstract shape or make a picture. This picture can be something specific you have in mind, or something that fits the overall theme of your room. This wall art also doubles as a night light. Draw the shape and strategically place nails to wrap the wire around and form whatever shape you’d like.

10. Jazz up a photo display

Hang your photos along a string light to surround yourself in amazing memories that are lit up and visible at all times. Lots of people struggle decorating their homes with artwork, but the photos hidden away on our phones and computers are begging to be printed out and strewn on walls, mantles, and more.
