BULBRITE MR16, $18 Use this crisp white bulb in the living room to bring out the color of a wall or spotlight a painting. Choose different color temperatures based on décor; the darker the
room, the lower the temperature. SYLVANIA COMPACT FLUORESCENT DULUX, $5–$12 Use a lower-temperature version of this bulb in the kitchen, where its yellow-pink tinge gives a light, airy feel.
The more unforgiving light of the higher temperatures is for the bathroom. CHROMALUX FULL SPECTRUM CLEAR 40 WATTS, $7 This faux-natural light enhances the color of fabrics and textures. Use
it on lamps in nurseries and bedrooms, or in the office—it reduces eye strain while reading. SPUNLITE 60C15S60 WATTS, $6.95 For use in small-socket chandeliers, it’s covered in threads that
cast a pretty pattern and make crystal on the table sparkle. FERROWATT ANTIQUE F1910N, 40 WATTS, $19.95. This reproduction of Thomas Edison’s 1910 design creates a warm, golden light effect
and is a good match for antiques. I LOVE YOU 3 WATTS, $15 Glowing pink neon is purely sappy, or whimsical, depending on your taste.
