Looking for an alternative to tea-lights and lanterns for that Summer soiree?
With a little imagination (and an extension cable) you can create a glowing reception with string of lights from Cable & Cotton!
Perfect for dining al-fresco, evening drinks or even to bring that extra special something to the wedding table.
The bright colours make for eye-catching décor for practically any corner of the house; even when left unlit, their soft glow will spread light and create ambience, so you can really enjoy those long Summer nights outdoors.
The Cable and Cotton team (Bryn and Zoe) thought that during the recession would be a good time to introduce something bright, simple, unique and affordable into peoples’ lives; the handmade, cotton ball mini-lampshades, which they sourced from Thailand were just brilliant.
Scouring the pantone chart for the best range of colours possible, Bryn and Zoe then set about asking the people of a small Thai village to make the cotton balls for them in these 35 different shades.
The idea was for people to be able to choose their own colour combinations to match their living rooms, bedrooms and even their favourite football team – so the simple but beautiful string lights were born!
The ‘Cotton’ Part of the product is a hollow ball shape (a little smaller than a tennis ball) with a hole for inserting the light bulb into. It is made of natural cotton, which is hand-dyed and shaped, using natural gum to make it firm.
The ‘Cable’ part of the product is a transparent string of lights with transparent plug in either:
20 bulb (total length 5.75m) or 35 bulb (total length 8m).
The cable and lights are CE safety approved and the plug BSI safety approved. Replacement bulbs – are provided.
