As we move further into autumn and the evenings get cooler, many Louisianans take advantage of the weather by heading outside to eat, entertain, and enjoy their surroundings. The trade-off for these ideal temperatures are the shorter days and longer nights. But this doesn’t mean that your outdoor living space needs to be left in the dark. There are many outdoor lighting options to make your Louisiana fall fun and festive.

Let’s start from the ground up.

Floor lamps and table lamps that complement existing decor

Many people try to attain the cozy feeling of indoors with their outdoor furniture. At Casual Creations, we stock many styles of outdoor floor and table lamps that pair perfectly with accent tables while offering all the modifications needed for a long outdoor life. Our outdoor lamps feature extra-long cords, globe shields, and shades that are easily removable for cleaning. Our selection of outdoor floor lamps allow you to illuminate your patio, porch, or poolside with high-quality, low-maintenance style.

Umbrella lights add vibrancy to your patio set

Looking to incorporate lighting into your existing outdoor décor? Then umbrella lights are the perfect way to brighten your evenings. Casual Creations offers LED string lights that give your seating area a funky tropical ambience. Or maybe you’re looking for something a little more high-def? Our umbrella pole lights may not offer the beachy atmosphere the string lights do, but they are remarkably efficient and can take your entertaining to the next level by broadcasting AM/FM radio through its stereo—or by connecting with an MP3 player.

Outdoor accent lighting that doesn’t ruin the ambience

Want to illuminate your garden path without disturbing the night’s atmosphere? At Casual Creations, we have a stellar selection of accent lights. LED Garden Glo™ lights—solar-powered and standard electric—will brighten your foliage while adding a vibrant dose of color.

Another very popular option for accent lighting are LED Floating Orbs™. Water-resistant and color-changing, these floating orbs can go right in your pool or spa. In fact, the LED Floating Orbs are built with a timer so their colors change while they are lit—an intriguing conversation piece for any party or gathering.  

Fire pits and fireplaces to warm up the atmosphere

Since the weather is turning cooler, why not warm up your night with a little fire. An outdoor fireplace is not only functional, but become the focal point of your open-air living space. Whether you opt for gas, electric, or wood burning, you’ll create an inviting environment for guests to settle in, relax, and truly enjoy each other’s company.

Do you fondly recall those childhood nights spent around the bonfire? A fire pit naturally becomes the gathering place in any outdoor entertaining space. At Casual Creations, we have an outstanding selection of freestanding wood burning or gas fire pits. Have something more unique in mind for your patio or backyard? We can build a custom fire pit to suit your exacting design standards.

And if you truly want to set your fire pit or fireplace apart, we also offer fireglass. The fire’s glow mixes with the fine colored glass to provide a contemporary look that’s a real conversation starter.

Just because the days are getting shorter doesn’t mean your time outside must. Transform your outdoor space into a true entertaining area for every season with the design and decorating experts at Casual Creations.
