I hate using The Big Light™, but I can’t always have my room dark. My led strip that is up in the corner of the ceiling just died, so I’m looking for replacements. I’m not opposed to another one, I’m just curious what all else there is. thanks

edit: I might actually just replace my big light bulbs with hue bulbs or something (though those are mad expensive)

    Thrift stores almost always have desk or standing lamps. Combined with cheap, warm colored low wattage LED bulbs (25w equivalent or lower), they add wonderful ambiance without breaking the bank.

      Bingo! Came here to say thrift store lamps as well.

      Here’s one I got for $4 and restored one evening last week.

      Yo OP! Took this just for you because I LOVE warm, ambient light. The Tiffany lamps are thrift stores finds, I think $10 and $15? Lamp on the left is also from a thrift. The alien egg I bought off a guy on /r/LV426. Handmade, $150 I think. It’s about my only original art I didn’t create myself. (Made the stand out of scraps though!)
