LED lamp before and after
I wasn't keen on wiring this corner, so I picked up a battery operated LED lamp for the dresser. It's been noted on other blogs and forums that these lights have a blue cast that's not like candlelight or incandescent bulbs. The light from this lamp is actually a bit green.
I used Debora's wonderful fix for it, dotting glass paint in a complementary color on the tip of the bulb. The paint I had on hand for glass and ceramics wasn't transparent, but I used just a little bit of it so it didn't block out too much light. I had to mix red and yellow, but it worked!
The paint on the bulb is somewhat visible when the lamp is off, but I'd rather have a closer approximation to candlelight when the lamp is on, so it's not really an issue for me.
