Lights Off

 Ya ever get just plain ol' overwhelmed?

The lit shelves for my boots have animated and excited me.  Until today.  The plan to buy lighting was sunk after a MUCH too long search this morning.  Light strips, which can be held in place with adhesive, have to be cut to fit my shelves.  Then the cut pieces have to be connected so the electric current can run through.  That means several boxy connectors which will ruin the aesthetic.  (Oooooh, fancy.  Or snobbish.  Take your pick.)  Light bars that will fit the shelves all seem to  be motion sensored.  That isn't what I want.

Light strips plus all the connectors plus the --- admittedly not that difficult --- work pushed the price close enough to the lights built-in shelves that I'm back to them.  After all the research and the measuring and the configuring, I'm not too excited about this now.
