Amazing LED Lights...

   I wanted to do a quick little post on an amazing product I picked up today at Lowe's. In my last post you saw my new Vanity Closet Re-do & I had mentioned that lighting was an issue in the closet for doing makeup. While at Lowe's today I picked up a pack of two battery operated LED "puck lights". They are amazing! I had planned on using the double sided adhesive on the lights to attach them under the shelves over my vanity mirror, but to my amazement when I got home, they were magnetic!!! & since the shelves are metal, that was perfect. I know I was a little too excited, but for the price of less than twenty five dollars for two of them, I was amazed at how awesome of a product this was. The brightness of the LED bulbs was also a bonus.....



Here is the Vanity closet before LED lights were in



Here's one of the LED lights. They are super bright!!


I also love that they are magnetic, so I can move them around as needed. Very convenient!  The lights use 3 AA batteries each (which came with the ones I got.)


Don't mind my scrubby saturday look... but I wanted to show the light output of these little suckers... & that is a picture of me not even directly below the lights. These lights will be helpful at 6am monday-friday when I can barely open my eyes as I get ready for work... maybe. 


Here is the light output shown on the vanity. Ok. You get the point. The lights are bright. & this is probably not as exciting to you as it is to me, but my vanity closet is just that much closer to be complete.  I was also thinking about getting more of these & using them in other places of our home. You could also use these as under cabinet lights in your kitchen, very affordable accent lighting.


Okay. So now a question for all of you! I had a few requests to do my favorite makeup products. Well, I had an idea.. I used to make "makeup" videos for youtube, & I was wondering if you guys would like to see my favorite makeup & cosmetic products video or blog post once a month here on Liz Marie Blog.. Let me know what you thin. Is that something you would like to see?

  3. I love the vanity and how excited you are about the lights. The fact that they are magnetic is cool as I've had something similar in the past and they did not work well since they were not magnetic. And yes, I'd love to see the make-up posts.

  24. Rent a car in Islamabad

    In the main cities of Pakistan, like in Islamabad, booking a wedding car is the essential and basic need of the public. Usually, people spend a lot of money and time on the selection of local wedding cars, but unfortunately, they face several problems in deciding the selection of luxury wedding cars. Such things may spoil your mood. In this manner, you should book reliable and affordable wedding car rental service providers in Islamabad and entire Pakistan
