Do you want to add some light to your outdoor space? In this video, a Best Buy Home Expert takes you through several lighting options that can add ambiance and safety to your backyard entertainment.

A good first step is to think about what you do in your outdoor space. Do you want lights that will set the mood for a party or brighter lights that will be good for a board game night? Or do you need lighting that you can adjust as your needs change?

Outdoor string lights are a popular choice. They are also called café lighting or terrace lighting. Outdoor sets are generally unbreakable, so they can withstand a fall. You can wrap a pergola for a trendy look, or you can simply place stakes in the ground or in pots around your space. Consider using a guide lamp to hang them as well. It will take some of the weight off the string of lights.

Strip lights are a fun way to add color or accents to your space. Outdoor light strips can be placed around the inside edges of planters and landscaping. They can also frame a doorway or frame steps and railings for security. Some light strips are smart too, so you can change the colors and brightness with an app and even sync them with music.

Spotlights are a great way to emphasize landscape features and create depth. Use them to draw attention to a water feature, a flowerbed or the texture of a building. They can be used to light up to create cool shadows, or to light down to add light to a specific area. Many spotlights are also smart, so they can be adjusted to your favorite colors.

Path lighting is an important safety feature, especially if you have a walkway or hill in your yard. They can be plugged into the ground almost anywhere without cables. Many are solar powered, so they charge during the day and shine brightly from dusk. Make sure they are in a spot with six hours of sun per day.

Layered lighting options can give your space a unique and stylish look. Our Home Expert has some suggestions on how to tailor your lighting to your space and favorite activities. And don't forget to think about how you're going to power these lights. We have batteries, solar energy and electrical energy sources.
