Decorating with Lights

TANtalize · 11-01-2001, 02:37 PM

Anyone know where I can get some strings of lights that are "suns". I've found a string in a catalog that has a palm tree and a flamingo alternating.

You might consider this: I took a small strand of clear white christmas lights and ran them along and thru a few of my lotion shelves.

It gets dark around 5:00 now and this is a great way to add a "touch" to the salon. Also, some of the packettes/bottles that have silver or gold trim really shine and show up with the reflection.

Oh...wait...got one for ya....
For Xmas last year, my manager took some gold ribbon and strung it from wall to wall in the lobby about 7 ft off the floor and hung JA packettes on it like ornaments. It was so cute and customers loved it! We also decorated a Christmas Tree with lotion packettes.

Sorry Melissa....guess I didn't really answer your question now, did I?

I bought some 'sun' lights a few months ago at a local party supply wholesaler. I would be glad to look to see if they have any more.
They are about 3" in diameter. I'd tell you how many on strand but I am finally home and they are at the salon. We have them above our desk against a wall.

I just got 8 strands on the palm tree/ flamingo lights at Kohl's for 9.99 and 75% off. What a bargain! LOL

Try looking into the suns at a party supply store. Or maybe you can try the Oriental Trading Company. The phone number is: 1-800-228-2269. They have alot of neat stuff, and very different from anywhere else.
