I used to have a formal dining room and all I did was dust it. It now is my sewing room . Yep my machine is on the dining room table and thats where I sew/quilt. We live in every room of our house and enjoy it. Life is too short not to do what you want.

Love these, I replaced every bulb in my apartment and the money I save on electricity is unbelievable. And it's lovely and bright all the time. My DH suffers from depression and it really helps to have these going. I even have them on during the day in our living room, I automatically hit the light switch as I'm walking into the room and it stays on til we go to bed. I use the ones that are equal to 100 watts of a regular bulb.

And if you replace a frosted bulb with a clear one, thr difference is amazing. Just did that in my reading lamp. It has two bulbs, both were frosted, one went out and my only replacment was clear. I have as much light with that one clear bulb as I had with two frosted.
