Review on LED Photo Clip String Lights by Rachel Brown

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The perfect way to elegantly update any room in the house

It's a bit long but if you're in doubt about buying it this will probably answer all your questions, haha. I am very impressed with these simple yet elegant lights! Very very impressed. To be honest, I was a bit skeptical about buying these lamps. I've always liked how the light looks in the bedroom and as a decoration, but at the same time I didn't want my room to turn into a princess room for toddlers, you know? That's not what it was about! I bought two skeins as my bedroom is bigger and I wanted them throughout the room plus a little corner for decoration. at my desk with extra light. They were the perfect length! The wire holds and easily transforms into any shape/design you want to make with the lights. They are also very light so I didn't have to worry about the hooks holding them. The lights are small and very complex, and the light is charming and not overpowering! There are two light settings, flicker and only one (which I prefer). I'm also very impressed with the clips. To be honest I thought these were big bulky clips that I wouldn't use but they are so small and cute! They're sharp and don't bother photos at all or make them look like crappy jewelry. I like how it looks like less pics but still a lot and I chose to just place the pics in a corner. I've included a triangular design. 100% good ratings so if you like me this is for you guys haha) (1) I was crazy I had to buy my own wall clips. There's nothing in the kit to hang them up (like they say, I don't really mind!) I found a pack of 20 clear Command hooks at Walmart for about $4 and they did the job perfectly! I used them all for both fairy lights so honestly you don't need much! And (2) you must buy your own AA batteries. You will need 3 per string of lights. But then again it's in the description so I don't mind haha. However, note that 2 additional purchases may be required to purchase this. HOW I HANGED THEM: For those wondering, I used clear guide hooks, one in each corner and one in the middle of each wall so there's no dangling part. For each of the angled hooks I wrapped a loop of wire around the hook to reduce the weight and pressure on each hook so it will last a long time. Using a picture and a paperclip, I placed the battery boxes on the baseboard around my closet. The base (with more hooks) holds the battery boxes well and the picture shows it so I could have a sleek design and not worry about showing the boxes at the same time. (This is just an idea for those wondering how to turn off the light when there isn't much wire left!) All in all, this was a great purchase! Longer review but I felt this product deserved to be described. There are a lot of lights but this is the best I've ever seen! The price is great, the customer service is top notch and I look forward to getting more for myself and my friends and family in the future. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to add a modern and unique touch to their home without breaking the budget or cluttering their home.
