These lights are a great idea. I thought they were bigger when I first saw them advertised and was surprised by the size of the box they came in. We put them in my daughter's room and let her design how they were connected. She uses them for nightlights, mood lighting, and for fun. Her friends who have visited her and seen them have loved them and suggested changes. They were one of her favorite things to get this year and they weren't even a Christmas gift.
