Whoever says lights are only for illuminating a place, have never been introduced to the comfort of soft lights. Lighting up a place is not just about providing adequate brightness, lights can go from mood-changers to mood-bummers. That's why we love lanterns because when it is cold and grey outside, they can turn our home into a cosy place. And just when it's getting warmer and it's time to sit outside more often, they look pretty hanging on our balcony or our little garden or even when not lit they made for excellent decor pieces! If you are fond of a lovely comforting glow, here is a list of reasons and lanterns to buy. Why? Because they're just so pretty, and will literally light up any dull corner!
