I just did my sewing room, but we haven't done the lighting yet. We're going for the LEDs that look like the fluorescents for the reasons that Cactus Stitchin stated. Ask an electrician about having everything on one switch - my whole room is on one circuit and the lights dim and the pellet stove slows down when the iron goes into heat-up mode. When we get the lights, we're going to have the room split into a couple circuits so the iron doesn't affect my machine or the pellet stove's electronics.
Have fun!
