Luxury Housing Trends & Home Improvement Ideas

We’ve looked at a few lighting options for the patio and deck before (solar fence or post lamps and torches that anchor to your patio or deck), but most of these involved elevated lighting–stuff designed to brighten things up at waist or head level. If you’re like me, though, you’re most likely to trip on a step because the ground isn’t well lit. That’s why recessed lighting that installs directly into the deck can be a smart idea.

These cute little LED lights come pre-wired so they are fairly easy to install, and because they employ LED bulbs, they should last years without needing to be changed out. You can find lights in different sizes, shapes, and even colors.

The 10-piece set shown here is available in white or blue and comes from UK retailer Online Lighting. Thanks to the increasing popularity of LED lighting for outdoor applications, you should be able to find similar lamps for decks in many stores.
