I found these cool little Sunbeam lamps at Dollar Store! They have 3 settings! We bought 6 of them- they are so convenient and not hard to move when needed. We've had them for 3 years now!
In the daytime I want natural light - I pull back my curtains and let it in. Unless it is cold and cloudy, then I might turn on one lamp. At night it is soft light. I have a lamp next to where I sit and it is enough for knitting. If I am doing needlework (not so much anymore) then I have a little Ott light I can sit next to me. I have a nice light at my craft desk but unless I’m doing something that demands light, let’s go natural or soft.
I accidentally ordered a 10 pack of bright lightbulbs and I was so mad! I much prefer the softer version (same lumens).
My husband ordered some LED lights for the laundry room and everytime I hang up clothes I feel like I am staring into the sun.
