paper lanterns
summer lights
outdoor lights

There's just something about pretty lights in the summertime...


1. Beautiful paper lanterns.
2. Cranes + string lights
3. Illuminated tree.
4. Lights in a jar.
5. Pretty lit up outdoor wedding.
6. Light-covered white tree
7. Colorful star lights.
8. Candles in jars.


I hope those of you here in the states had a wonderful 4th of July (full of lights + fireworks + sunshine)!

  8. I love these images. Maybe it's the romantic in me, but I've always thought paper lanterns and fairy lights add a bit of magic to your life; they make everything sparkle and glow.

    Also, I loved your comment about the Tibetan monks making detailed mandalas and then brushing them away...such a beautiful concept.

  10. Everyone one needs a magical canopy of light, it reminds me of the dens my mother would make me when I was little. So magical. Now I want to go and hang millions of fairy lights up. Gorgeous pics x
