I've been drooling over the OttLite lamps for years, but hadn't yet pulled the trigger on a purchase - it was so hard to decide which one! So when I was contacted by the OttLite company and asked if I'd like to do a review and giveaway for one of their lamps, I jumped at the chance! And I'm so glad I did!
Even though it was *still* hard to pick just one, I finally came to a decision - the OttLite 18W Sewing Floor Lamp with Accessory Tray. When I crochet or knit, I like to get comfy on the couch, so I wanted a floor lamp that I could adjust and focus on my work, without disturbing the TV-watchers around me. The adjustable neck and shade are just right!
And while I don't do a whole lot of sewing these days, the accessory tray is just as great for crocheters! The tall cup is perfect for hooks, and the little divided sections hold a tape measure, yarn needles, stitch markers - everything you need! And they won't get lost between the couch cushions!
And the light itself is perfect. Colors are more accurate under an OttLite, which is super important to me. And working with dark colored yarn is SO much easier now! I was afraid I'd have to stop crocheting with the darker blues, purples, and blacks, but now I can see them clearly!
Another thing I love is the heavy, sturdy base. With a 20 lb puppy running around - not to mention 3 kids - I needed something that wasn't going to get knocked over. This lamp fits the bill!
I love lamp - and I love OttLite! So I'm super excited to giveaway an OttLite 18W Sewing Floor Lamp with Accessory Tray to one very lucky Moogly reader! Due to the various electrical systems in different countries, OttLite can only ship this one to USA entries. This giveaway ends December 18, 2014 at 12:15am Central time. Only the email entry is mandatory - all other options on the Rafflecopter form below are for bonus entries!
Good luck everybody! Thank you to OttLite for sponsoring this fantastic giveaway! Get Moogly on your favorite social media sites: Facebook, Twitter, G+, Pinterest,Instagram and Tumblr, and sign up for the Newsletter so you don’t miss a thing!

I have to second your enthusiasm about Ott-Lites. While I don't have this model (I have the one with the magnifier that converts from desk to floor lamp), it is probably one of the best crafting gifts I ever gave myself! Nicely weighted so it doesn't tip, bendable neck to aim the light right where you need it, and fabulous true color. It makes even working with dark colored yarns or tiny hooks a much easier task. If you don't have one of these, you should definitely try to win one. They are so worth it even at full-price!
Tamara Kelly
I agree! I'm thinking I need a second for my desk!

My aging eyes can use all the help they can get. I have a flip ottlite that I take on vacation because the rental house light is not good and it's been a huge help. My craft/sewing room would love it!! I'm crossing my fingers!!
Nikki
chemo wrecked my vision, so this light would be perfect. Too bad I live in Canada and don't qualify for the giveaway :(.
Guess I'm saving up my money to buy one.
Thanks for the great review!

As someone with low vision and deteriorating daily, this Ott lamp with accessory tray would be so much help with close work of all kinds.
Sherry Gibson
Oh how Wonderful it would be to win this lamp! I have been wanting one for ages it seems. I am like you when it comes to the darker yarn, I have a very hard time seeing what I am doing. Great lamp you chose too, as the tray would be awesome for any type of craft. How sweet of OttLite and you to offer this! Thank You for the chance of winning something that would for sure make things so much easier for me to create. 😉
Kammy Vandenbussche
With my eyes getting worse, I would love to have one of these lights to continue crocheting/knitting at night. I have a floor lamp, but it often disturbs everyone else in the room to watch TV, so I end up turning it off. Here's keeping my fingers crossed.
Brenda Johnson
thank you for this chance to win. I think you know I am a fan-stalker of your website! 🙂
Kathy Mattern

JACQUI CHRISTIANCE@YAHOO.COM
It's funny that you should offer this fabulous giveaway at this time. I have been wanting a OttLite for ever, you see, I crochet in a dark little corner of our living room. It certainly does not provide healthy eyesight especially when working with dark colors. So, I hope that when you choose the giveaway winner My name shows up. peace,jacqui
Charlene
This would be so helpful especially in the evenings
