I purchased this curtain string light set several years ago and decided to finally give it a review after using it this past holiday season.  I purchased to use as part of my Christmas decorations.  This past Christmas, I only wanted to put a very minimal amount of decorations because we were going out of town. So, I decided to try this curtain light in a different area of the house.  I hung them from the stairs of the 2nd floor letting them hang over the open lower level. OH MY GOODNESS, they were so beautiful!! They added the perfect ambiance I was looking for without using any effort at all.  The twinkling blinking effect is awesome!!! LOVE THEM!!!!
