Classic Outdoor Decor: Globe Light Bulbs
Outdoor light bulbs come in all shapes, colors, and sizes, but the most iconic and popular is the globe light bulb. If you're overwhelmed by options, globe patio lights bulbs are a beautiful addition to every outdoor space. You can hang them across an alfresco seating area, from fence posts, and along porch railings and the result will be welcoming lighting that adds a festive atmosphere to your outdoor living areas.
Globe Light Bulb Size Recommendations
While shopping around for outdoor bulbs, you'll notice that globe bulbs are denoted by the letter G followed by a number: G30, G50, G95, and so on. The number following the G refers to the diameter of the bulb in millimeters. So, a G30 bulb is 30mm around, a G50 is 50mm around... you get the idea! The larger the number, the bigger the bulb. For smaller patios and outdoor areas, we recommend G30 & G40 globe light bulbs spaced 6-12" apart. If you're lighting a large outdoor event or dining space, larger G50, G95, & G125 bulbs spaced 12-24" apart are best.
