Lighting for cabinet - 5/14/2006 7:56:20 PM    annie44 Posts: 1138 Joined: 10/27/2005 Status: offline Would a white LED light work in a bottle cabinet?  It is really dark right now, so I wanted to add lighting, but I was hoping I wouldn't have to drill holes and run wires in it.  I found these round white LED lights that have a self-adhesive that you can stick on the cabinet - any thoughts on if that would work. I don't want it to look tacky.    Post #: 1

Just make sure they are stuck really well so they don't fall into the bottles and knock any off the shelf. _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ (in reply to annie44) Post #: 2

The others have battery powered lights. They are very economical  and there is no wiring. _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ (in reply to JGUIS) Post #: 5
