Optical Grade Magnifier by Ott-Lite

I am a jewelry designer. I like to make beautiful pieces of jewelry for my friends and family. Unfortunately, it doesn’t pay the bills so I have to work a ‘real’ job like the rest of the world. I do sell my jewelry at art shows here and there and the money sure does make a nice contribution to my bills. Making jewelry requires patience because I am constantly working with so many small objects. It definitely gets to be difficult at times. I wanted to take the time to inform fellow jewelry makers or craft lovers about the Optical grade 3 times magnifier. It is a magnifier that simply attaches to anything it fits around. Ideally, it is meant to attach to lamps found at thelitesource.com. I do have a few lamps from the site and choose to use the magnifier with a lamp because the combination of enhanced vision and light makes the tiniest details clear and easy to see.  Small clasps, beading with intricate details and other task are now simple. For example, I often need to put small pieces of string through little itty bitty openings or needles through little wholes and with the magnifier attachment, I am amazed at how easy these frustrating tasks have become. This magnifier would be an excellent accessory for anyone who sews. It would also come in handy for anyone with less then optimal vision. It is an affordable accessory and great for many things. It’s the kind of item that will remain valuable in time. Thought I would share.

Freestanding Magnifier by Ott-Lite model A0053N

Scrapbooking is a time consuming hobby. Anyone who does it on a regular basis knows how expensive it can be. Both time and money are things I find valuable and I think others would agree. That is why, I like to be very detailed when scrapbooking. If I’m using my time and money on something then I want to try my best and make it perfect. Granted, this is a hobby of mine so I still want to keep it fun. With that being said, I bought a freestanding magnifier at thelitesource.com. It is simply a 5 inch round magnifier on an adjustable stand. As pointless as this item may seem, it has really contributed to my scrapbooking. For example, I sometimes use very small pieces of glitter and it can be difficult when deciphering between reds and pinks or blues and teals. The magnifier increases objects up to 5 times their original size making color selections in small crafting supplies simple and quick. I have a giant sticker collection consisting of letters, numbers, sayings, activities and more. After looking at millions of stickers for a few hours, my eyes play tricks on me and the boy at the picnic holding the hot dog might be mistaken for the boy at school holding the pencil. Despite time spent on scrapbooking, the smallest details are seen clearly with the magnifier. The magnifier can be picked up and placed anywhere.  It is grey and probably handy for any crafting project.

Ott-Lite Flexible Craft Lamp

I love to scrap book in my free time. I was shopping around and found a lamp that is really helpful for my crafts, especially scrap booking. The Flexible Craft Lamp has an adjustable neck. It is easily moved in all directions. I have so many stickers. Marker pens, colored picture corners and plenty of other miscellaneous stuff. I tend to spread everything out and this lamp makes it easy for me to reach over and adjust it so the light can shine on any of my objects. Also, my pictures are a lot clearer. This lamp has natural light and it was made specifically to enhance color and detail. I have made sure to get the best photo paper for printing. Resolution is never a problem because I adjust my pics on my pc using this lamp. There is a non glare feature on the craft lamp so I never see an obnoxious glare on my pc or anything else. I never leave it on for that long but it doesn’t produce heat. That is cool because if I needed to, I know I could work beneath it for long hours and never feel over heated. Natural light is safer for photographs than your typical everyday bulb. The bulb can last for up to 10,000 hours. The Craft lamp rotates up to 180 degrees. It is really quite versatile. The shade moves too! Most importantly, it is portable. I can take it with me on vacation or travel with it to Monday night scrap booking gatherings at my friend Tracy’s.

Ott-Lite Lisbon Art Lamp

This year’s art show brought in more questions, compliments and purcheses than any previous show. People kept showing up and instead of going home around 10pm, I finally had to ask people to leave after midnight. I like to think I’m a great artist but my style and interest in landscapes for painting hasn’t really changed much over this last year. I’m contributing my success to the Lisbon Art Lamp. The petite lamp is finished in a professional brass and looks great hanging above each painting. I was nervous about ruining my painting despite the positive things I heard about this lamp. I tested it before the show on a couple pieces I wouldn’t terribly miss. Not only did the light not cause any damages, but it brought out the detail in colors. Seriously, the colors were dramatically enhanced. I decided to hang the lamp in my craft room so I could complete all of my unfinished paintings beneath it. It doesn’t produce heat so my paintings are safe and I never feel over heated painting under it for long hours. The details in my work are so much clearer so I’ve found I make fewer mistakes. The 10watt replacement tube is easy to install and can be found at thelitesource.com along with other great lamps and accessories for crafting.
