The decorative lights make a nice romantic light in the dark room. Popping up everywhere bright points of light on walls and ceilings. Add to that a few candles or a little other light source then it's "bright enough". Without further light sources, it would be to me personally a bit too dark in the room. But can also be partially use of. I can imagine the lights as path lighting to the next garden party. For the current price of 6.90 you can not go wrong here.
