Description
These string lights set five little acrylic hedgehogs along one cable, ready to glow in a row across a windowsill, a mantelpiece or a garden border. Each hedgehog has a golden, bristly back above a frosted white face, with two dark eyes and a small brown nose, and the light inside makes the whole body shine softly. They are small and neat: each one stands 6.5cm tall and measures 12.5cm wide and 8cm deep, so they sit comfortably on a narrow ledge or tuck between plant pots.
Made for indoor and outdoor use, they can go wherever a little cheer is needed. Line them along a porch step, beside a doorway or at the edge of a garden path, or keep them inside on a bookshelf, a sideboard or a deep window sill where they can be seen from outside. The 5m lead cable gives you room between the transformer and the spot where the hedgehogs sit, and a built-in timer looks after switching them for you, so you can set them out once and enjoy them through the dark evenings of Christmas and the winter around it.
The bodies are acrylic, with wire and LEDs running through them, and the set runs at low voltage through a mains transformer that plugs into the mains. Keep the transformer indoors or under cover, and lay the lead where nobody will trip over it. Care is simple: they are wipe clean only, so unplug them and give them a gentle wipe with a soft damp cloth when they need it. We like to space the five hedgehogs out in a loose line as if they are wandering home together, or gather them at the foot of the tree with a little greenery for a cosy woodland scene.
