Organic Living: Switching to Green Lighting

Not literally of course.

But solar lighting. I'd bought some from the Animal Rescue Site but they didn't last very long. So I was thrilled to find one in Ikea for $19. It has three LEDs and serves as a booklight too! I wish I saw it before buying that crummy one from Borders last year.

Since I am up half the night, this can save me tons of money and the environment too by using it as a computer light and a book light. Will try sewing under it too. It is really very bright!

If you have an Ikea where you are, see if they carry it. It should be under the lighting department.

It is nice to see Ikea walk the talk, now if only they'd shut off those lamps in the lighting department! They really don't need to advertise their lamps. People go there to buy their stuff already.
