Luckily, lighting choices are one of the most affordable ways you can enhance any area of your home, and outdoors is no exception. Even small changes like swapping light bulbs creates the perfect opportunity to have some fun and ex- press your personality with different colours design styles. "Most homeowners don't appreciate the power of styl- ish yet functional light bulbs to make a design statement both inside and out," said Bethany Wood, senior merchant of light bulbs at The Home Depot. "The Home Depot's ex- clusive light bulb brand EcoSmart was designed to inspire DIYers to create better, brighter room atmospheres. It's important to choose light bulb features unique to your life- style that'll also allow you to customize your space, from switching through shades of light to match your mood, saving on energy bills with automatic on/off, helping you complete a task or creating your ideal ambience." Here are some easy and affordable ways to transform outdoor areas for effortless warm-weather entertaining. 1. Get the party started: To create an upbeat mood, nothing is more fun and festive than bright, vibrant co- lours, so consider upgrading your entertaining space with a Colour Changing Party LED Light Bulb from The Home Depot. You'll bring any indoor occasion to life using red, green, blue and yellow light, with five lighting effect options to choose from. EcoSmart light bulbs are equipped with user-friendly and innovative features, meaning you can easily switch between colours using a toggle on each bulb or conveniently cycle between colours with the simple flip of a standard wall switch. 2. Pump up the jam: A party atmosphere isn't complete without music. Set the tone for an exciting night with your guests and keep them dancing or singing all night long with a Bluetooth Speaker LED Light Bulb. This EcoSmart bulb combines colour selectable lighting with Bluetooth technology. Simply connect to your favourite Bluetooth de- vice, without the need for any extra wiring or a hub. 3. Go vintage: Everything vintage and retro style is all the rage right now, but it's not always easy to create the look and be practical at the same time. One fun option is to use strands of Edison bulbs to give your deck or patio a "bistro" atmosphere. Or if you want a more intimate old- fashioned look, illuminate the night with the warm glow of EcoSmart Flame LED Light Bulbs, which create an alluring ambience by simulating a realistic flickering flame effect without emitting any heat. Better yet, you won't have to worry about the risk that real flames can bring. 4. Enjoy a bug-free shindig: Your light bulbs can even help you keep those pesky pests away from your get-to- gether in a more natural way. Opt for outdoor yellow Bug LED Light Bulbs, which help to repel insects and can be used as an alternative to bug sprays. 5. Be ready for anything - even outages: Don't let sum- mer storms rain on your parade! In case your power goes out, Battery Backup LED Light Bulbs are energy efficient and equipped with a power failure battery that will auto- matically turn on in the event of a power failure - and can last up to 3 hours. When in regular use the internal battery will charge, ensuring that you'll always have an option for light during an outage.
