When it comes to creating a mesmerizing light-filled atmosphere, the combination of archway lighting sculptures and horse lanterns takes center stage. Among them, the archway lighting sculpture, with its Christmas bell-inspired hollow design, stands out brilliantly, especially when adorned with myriad string lights.
Unlike the horse lanterns, this archway lighting sculpture is filled with dozens of light strips fitted with countless string lights. While horse lanterns built-in bulbs transmitting traditional charm with their warm glow, the archway sculpture, thanks to the dense yet delicate arrangement of string lights, presents a grand starry view that feels like walking under a twinkling night sky. Every corner of the hollow Christmas bell shape is illuminated by the soft, shimmering string lights, creating an immersive and magical ambiance that horse lanterns alone cannot match. Now, let’s dive into how to install these string lights to bring this stunning piece to life.
Install String Lights on the Top Part: Start with the top part of the archway. Wrap the string lights along the contours of the top framework, then test the lighting effect immediately. Based on the test results, adjust the spacing between the string lights repeatedly until the optimal interval is found—this ensures that the light distribution is even and the starry effect is not too sparse or too dense. After confirming the spacing, install light strips along the top framework’s edges; these light strips help outline the archway’s overall shape, making its Christmas bell design more distinct even from a distance.
Prepare the Metal Framework: First, the metal framework of the archway lighting sculpture is sprayed with white paint. This is a crucial choice compared to the black paint used on horse lanterns’ frameworks—white paint significantly enhances light reflection, making the string lights’ glow more vivid and radiant. To ensure sturdiness, the framework adopts a double-layer structure, with additional reinforcement at the bottom, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent light installation.
Install String Lights on the Four Main Components: Next, focus on the four main components that make up the archway lighting sculpture. Through repeated tests and adjustments, it was determined that the best arrangement density is 4 horizontal string lights and 4 vertical string lights per metal framework section. To amplify the starry effect, workers install string lights on both the inner and outer layers of each component, creating a layered glow that feels more immersive. Just like the top part, light strips are also installed on these four components to maintain the sculpture’s overall outline consistency. What’s more, different colored light strips are added at the designed pattern of the components, adding a touch of color and elegance to the pure starry white glow.
Once all parts are equipped with string lights and light strips, the final assembly begins. Workers carefully connect the top insert part with the four main components, ensuring that the framework is aligned perfectly and the lights are connected smoothly. When the entire archway lighting sculpture is lit up, the magic unfolds: the hollow Christmas bell shape, wrapped in twinkling string lights and outlined by light strips, radiates a warm and dreamy glow.
What makes this archway lighting sculpture even more special is its customization capability.
