Creating a romantic Christmas with innovative lights

DON'T you just love the little lights on Christmas trees every year? These dazzling lights have over the years become synonymous with the season's festive spirit and are now even used to turn buildings and walkways into merry objects.

To keep up with the world's growing environmental awareness and need to reduce energy consumption, a new version of the traditional fairy light has hit the market - one powered by the sun. Solar fairy lights, as the name suggests, do not demand conventional electricity sources. Six hours under the sun, the solar panel can let the LED lights flash for eight hours. With a control device, you can also adjust the mode of flash and the time for the lights' on and off.

These solar fairy lights are not only useful during the Christmas, but also can be used for outdoor lovers to add a warm festival atmosphere to their campsites. What's more, they are very convenient for use because they are waterproof.

Sun Jar

Still remember your childhood dreams? Always want to put the sunshine into a small jar and take it to light your room during the night?

The innovative sun jar will make those dreams come true. This is perhaps the most romantic energy saving light on the market. During the day, the sun jar collects sunlight that can be used for lighting for several hours at night. The jar is also equipped with an optical switch and a hand control switch, so one can turn it off at any time. An interesting feature of this sun jar is its ability to test the lighting of its surroundings. When it becomes darker, the light will automatically turn on and become brighter.

Thaw light

This is definitely a unique way to create a romantic atmosphere. Pour water into a specially made mould and put it into a freezer. Several hours later you will get an ice ring with a hollow in the middle. Place a candle inside the hollow area and light it, the candlelight will penetrate the ice ring with tenderness. The flame's warmth will gradually melt the ice ring.

There is ample time for lovers to hold hands and repeat their sweet words amid the romantic glow. The smart design of the mould collects every drop of melting water and definitely won't ruin a beautiful candlelight dinner.
