I assume when you mean decoration, you mean sort of mood lighting and enhancing your home.

The best to do that is to have layering, and a mixture of shadows and spot lighting, with dimmers. You can also use coloured lights (red, yellow and orange work really well).

Some ideas include: spike and bollards outside, fairy lights, and mini-downlights on the ceilings.

Inside, you can install lights at foot level on the walls that point up. Gives a stunning effect (just make sure you don't point the lights at people's eyes).

Outside, you can install lanterns and string lights.

For the best decoration there is, you can put in LED strip lights (they come IP rated so you can put them indoors or outdoors). Beautiful effect!

String lights in trees works very well.

If you have a pool or a pond, consider underwater lights.

Also ground lights are great.

I like lights that change colour slowly.

We use xmas lights all year round, a bit rough round the edges but great decorations.

Some floor lamps are stunning in their own right in terms of their design - they are decorations by themselves!

We use RGB smart lights - they can be pre-programmed to give amazing effects.
