A small feature

The string lights aren’t in the right container, I’m getting a small white watering can from a friend, which I will thread the lights through the spout, it will then hopefully look like trickling water cascading down, just an idea.

Re: A small feature

Good idea Pauline I think it would look good if you got a longer strand of lights and looped them around to give volume to the 'cascading water'.

I like that, we have lights up, expecting an helicopter to land any night now.

Yes, I was thinking that, perhaps even swirl it around in a coil on the ground.


Grrrrreat idea Pauline.

Re: A small feature

What do you think?

I think the cascade needs to be longer, the string of lights I bought are quite short, I have another set though, please help me out, as I’m unsure.

Should they be longer?

That is so pretty, Pauline, I bet it looks even prettier after dark when the lights are lit.
