Mommy Greenest Approved: Cree LED Light Bulbs for Outdoors

If you’ve been following Mommy Greenest for a while, you know that I’m slowly but surely switching over to LED light bulbs. I’m a huge fan of Cree LED light bulbs, which look like regular bulbs, but use 84% less energy and last 25 times longer than incandescents and—best of all—don’t buzz when you dim them, like CFLs. Now I’m breaking them out in the great outdoors! The main light on our deck come from our outdoor sconces. I used Cree LED light bulbs–PAR38 LED bulbs, to be exact–to update my lights.

Take a look at my before and after: before on the left, and after on the right. See how the color is warmer and not so weirdly yellow? I love the subtle difference this made! What do you think?
