I use the ceiling fan in my room a lot, just moving the air around helps
|
I changed all the bulbs in my house to fluorescent because of the heat. I do a lot of hand embroidery and sitting under a 100 watt bulb is not comfortable. I just get hot cutting or sewing even if I'm fine before I start.

Get a window unit!!!!!!!!!!!1

I have the same problem and possibly the same light fixture. The iron doesn't help matters either. I have to keep the door to my small room closed to keep out the cats. Sometimes it is unbearable.
You could either get a window a-c unit or make quilts for the rest of your family to stay warm with. |
In the mean time how about wetting a small handtowel and lay it around your neck? With a fan on it will reduce your temp quite a bit. I have always ran warm/hot and when I was working I sat in a cubby hole that had no vents located nearby. So crazy as this is I would put a fan on me and use a frozen icepack either put it behind my back or on my lap. On really hot days I would just drench the back of my shirt. (no one sat behind me)....I was desperate!!!! lol

I use OTT Lites 100 watt and my lit area does not get hot at all. But, I do understand where you are coming from, before I changed to OTT Lights I too was roasting at my cutting table.
