my banquet/craft table is against the wall. the ceiling light is in the middle of the ceiling behind me. any suggestions for better lighting??
WHAT DO YOU HAVE?

THANKS for any suggestions you may have.

I have a small table lamp that I put on my table like that. Helps eliminate the shadows.

I use nothing but OTT Lights. They reduce eye strain and imitate natural light. I have a flip-up table top lamp, a floor lamp, and then in the one fixture that hangs above my table I put in an OTT bulb. They're expensive but worth every penny and the bulbs last a very long time. If you have 40%-50% coupons for any craft stores (Joanne's, Michael's,etc) you can use those and save yourself a good amount of money. This is what I have;

I have the stand alone lamp and the small one for a table and I love them. The light from them is the best. Love using them when I'm beading and painting as I can see true colors instead of muted ones.

Another vote for OTT lights here, they are well worth the money. After using one myself, I bought them for my DDs for Christmas, they both do alot of sewing and crafts.

My second choice for quickies is the kitchen flourescent overhead.
