Until I had my Daylight Lamp I struggled to balance my business and my hobbies, but then the Swan Floor Lamp entered my life and equilibrium was restored. I just LOVE this lamp. First of all it’s on wheels so I no longer need several lamps in different locations, I just wheel my lamp into whichever room I am in (this works as I live in a cottage but could be a bit cumbersome if you had to carry it upstairs as it’s quite heavy).

The other thing I love about this lamp is that it has a bendy stem (I think the correct word is neck?) which means you can bend it down as close to you or as far away as you want. This is perfect because, especially when I am on the sofa, normal floor lamps are just that little bit too far away and they always seem to shine in the wrong direction whereas the daylight lamp allows you to adjust the position of the light without having to move the lamp or furniture around.
The bulb itself is white and not yellow and most importantly not hot! I don’t find my eyes getting tired when working with it, as they would with a standard light. Obviously if I have been working 12 hours they are tired but you get my drift, don’t you? The other thing I love is that there’s no glare from the light. It just lights up the area you are working in a comfortable way.
What else can I say? Oh yes, there’s also a handy magnifying attachment that comes with this lamp. Personally I don’t tend to use this as I don’t wear glasses but my mum loves it! She finds it perfect for reading in bed for all the reasons above, i.e. no glare and it’s easy to adjust the light and magnifying glass to the position you want. However I do think this would be invaluable for intrinsic sewing such as fine embroidery or beading work.

Overall I have to say my Daylight lamp has not only saved my money as it’s a one for all rooms lamp, but I am pretty sure it has saved my eye sight too as most of my sewing is done at night with artificial light. I highly recommend it to any crafters or bedtime readers!
