Exterior Post Lanterns
Add a touch of sophistication and grandeur with a pair of outdoor post lights at an entrance of a home or driveway. Exterior post lanterns not only make a bold statement, they also enhance the beauty of any residence while providing years of maintenance free illumination.
If you’re on a budget (and who isn’t these days) you can easily do some minor upgrades to your current exterior lighting that won’t break the bank, are relatively easy DIY projects, give you a high-end look and save you money.
For this project, we replaced the original post lanterns with new Hampton Bay Exterior Post Lanterns that we found on sale at a local home supply store.
3 Philips Duramax Blunt Tip Clear 40 watt bulbs were installed into each of these exterior lanterns.
We kept the original 6 foot aluminum posts but painted them with Tremclad metal rust paint, in a black matte finish to match the finish on the lanterns. 2 Coats of paint were needed to cover the original white paint.
Project completion time from beginning to end took about 2.5 hours. Materials and supplies to complete this project-$120.00.
