Our garage wall glows in the dark




We finally had lights installed behind the screen in the garage...the wall glows delicately at night - although, from these photos, the wall appears to blaze like a sun!

Now all I need is a time machine to whisk me back to my twenties, when I stayed up later than 9:30pm.

    Stunning! I think you need to have a party and invite us all over to enjoy your fab outdoor space.

    I couldn't get a blogger party passed by the committee (the better half)

    I still have visions of a blogger pot luck...where everyone brings yummy snacks in pretty vintage dishes - wouldn't that be fun?

    Thanks Kerry! Its all coming together!!! We had a bonfire for two the first night the lights were installed! So we did get a little enjoyment from it!

    If its an consolation, I'm in my twenties and struggled to stay up until 10pm for Rookie Blue last night! The lighting looks fantastic!

    Love it! It looks so good! I know what you mean about early to bed - I don't think I've lit my outdoor candle lanterns once this summer. Sad!

    Looks amazing! Is it really that bright as it looks in the photos or is it on a dimmer by any chance? Just wondering whether it'd be a little glaring if you were eating on the side of the table that faces it. LOL Love it.

    Hi Kristine!
    The camera makes it look MUCH brighter than it actually is...it glows. Don't worry - you can't see it from space!
