String Lights – Cotton Ball Garland in Five Lengths, USB or Battery

String Lights – Soft Light at Eye Level Instead of a Ceiling Fixture

Small LEDs sit inside woven cotton balls about two and a half inches across. The fabric filters the light, so what comes out is a glow rather than a row of bright points. Five lengths are available, carrying ten to fifty bulbs, powered by USB or batteries.

Why choose a cotton ball string light?

Overhead light makes a room usable and rarely makes it pleasant. A strand run along a shelf edge or above a headboard puts light low and wide instead of straight down. The cotton shells take the hard edge off the LEDs, which matters most in the evening.

• Woven cotton shells — each ball spreads the light instead of focusing it.
• Ten to fifty bulbs — the count follows the length you pick.
• Five lengths — from 5 ft above a mirror to 33 ft along a wall.
• USB or battery power — hang it where there is no outlet, or plug it in.
• Inline switch — on and off without reaching for the plug.

One strand, and the overhead light can stay off all evening.

Let the cord hang in loose arcs rather than pulling it tight, which spreads the light more evenly. Turn each ball so the seam faces the wall and only the smooth side shows. Take the batteries out if the strand will sit unused for a while.
