Oooo, I like me some wine! And I also like me some incandescent bulbs…as far as I’m concerned, I’d rather enjoy the ‘vibe and mood’ of my home than save money! Although my hubby would disagree with that as well. I figure if it’s an extra $50 a year for my crappy old incandescents…I’m okay with that! I suppose a ‘daylight’ bulb would be a happy medium in the LED range, but preferably the ‘warm ones’.

I love the warmth of incandescent lighting as well and my husband likes LED. What do you recommend for a happy medium? Keeping in mind I have warm gray paint and it goes cool and taupe with LED.

I love reading your blog and love love your humor. 🙂 I wish you could come to my home in Colorado and help me. We could drink a bunch of wine. Hahaha

Hi Yvonne, yes any lighting is better than none! That type of lighting is more like ‘mood’ lighting which adds a nice ambience to a room without necessarily adding ‘useable everyday light’.

I was thinking of lighting on top of crown moulding surrounding the room. I will also use floor and table lamps yvonne
