I have four bulbs in a ceiling fan light in the middle of the room. That is also over my longarm. I have 22" fluorescent lights over each of my cutting tables. I have the ott light, but I don't care too much about it. I have a little lamp with a funny little bulb (it maybe fluorescent), that is extremely bright by my sewing machine. I have that same kind of lamp on my computer desk. I got those lamps at IKEA and I really do like them. I think they were about $7.00 and to me, they are much better than the ott light. I have a floor lamp right next to my ironing board. Some regular desk type lamp on my bookkeeping desk.
