In every place I’ve lived, from my parents’ house to my college dorm to my city apartments, there has been some version of string lights. I’m not an overhead lighting kinda gal, so I need all the atmospheric light options possible. String lights give you the warmth and glow you need to, you know, actually see, but with an aesthetically pleasing set up. Whether they’re wrapped around a balcony, hung from ceilings, or used to light a backyard, we’ve rounded up a few strands to keep your space looking great.
