Battery Operated LED Lights

I wondered how those lights would look, thanks for sharing!

WooHoo! I think these lights have possibilities....especially since I'm so chicken to try real lights.

Thanks for showing us...and by-the-way...that Bathroom is lovely!!

Thanks so much for the compliment!

I've not tried tape wire. People swear by it and I'm sure there are many advantages but for some reason, the whole layout process boggles me.

To me, hard wiring is a piece of cake. With a smaller house, the leads that come with the lights are plenty long to reach a centralized power strip. If you've got a big house, though, you need to learn to strip and splice wires. Very easy but it'll take a few practice tries to get the hang of it because the wires are so tiny. For all I know they make a tool that strips the wires for you but since I worked as an electrician's helper for years, I just use my own hand tools.

It does take a little thought to drilling holes in ceilings before you finish the floor above or double-checking that lights/outlets work before you add any exterior siding which may cover wiring. Really, no different than any other planning we do when building these things.

One thing I learned by trial and error is that any time you can, use an outlet to plug in a light, do it. It makes it so much easier to change out lightbulbs or even change your mind on fixtures. Also, just like in a regular house, you want to have extra outlets in case you buy a new lit fish tank or computer or even Christmas lights.

Give lighting a try!

This bathroom is to die for...Simply ADORE IT!!!

Oh, my goodness. I'm blushing. Thank you so much!!!

I tried out those lights on my Buttercup and found them to be violet hued and horrible. I am trying to figure out out to hard wire now. Good luck!
