Insider's Look at Craft Lights


A lot of people that are not involved in the crafting world might not really understand all the differences between the traditional mini Christmas light sets and craft mini lights. We would like to share these secrets with you, so if you would like to start crafting more with lights, you will all the insider's information.

Craft lights won't have an end connector. What that means is that the smaller strings will only have a stackable male plug and instead of a female plug it will end with a bulb. This will make projects such as, lighting wine bottles and glass blocks much easier.

Craft mini light sets will have much fewer bulbs. You will see bulb counts from 10 to 35. They come in small counts because if you are lighting smaller projects, such as a wreath or centerpiece you won't want to overwhelm it with so many mini light bulbs.

Traditional mini Christmas lights come with much wider spacing than craft light strings. This will cause a problem because there will be too much wire in your small projects and it will make it seem too cramped or overwhelmed.

For these reasons, craft mini lights will be the best for lighting small projects. Use them for centerpieces, glass blocks, wine bottles, light canvases and much more. They will work perfectly and won't overwhelm your designs.
