    Hey All,

    I have a machine in a corner of a room that doesn't have lighting directly above it and nor does it have a fixture outlet above it.

    My only option is a plug on the wall on the side of the machine. This will be perfect for an accent swag lamp running up the wall and draping over to a hook above the machine and dropping down.

    Has anyone else done this for a single machine? I'm looking for a nice preferably LED light diffusing fixture and bulb.

    I have the cord chosen, I just need the bulb and fixture... I'm gonna search the local. Stores soon...

    Here's the cord: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00BJRKHO2/ref=mp_s_a_1_15

    Thanks!

    The Pinball Lampshade is an ideal choice.

    Sure I do!

    Just finished 7 pendant lamps!

    If you like the colored cord, check these out:

    ebay.com link: Modern Colorful Silicone Pendant Light Ceiling Lamp Socket Hanging Fixture New

    There are many types of colored drops, the length is easy to adjust. The shape at the top, and where the bulb goes, are the major differences.

    Depending on the "look" you want, you can go to Lowes or Home Depot, and while the colors arent there, dozens of different glass globes, from Italian floral, to cut faceted, are options. Total cost..$20-$30

    Very hot in some places are ropes with light.

    Vintage and industrial bulbs are sizzling, and shades of all types.

    So basically, searching under "Pendant Light", say on Ebay, you can find all the cords, colors, shapes, and ends, from Rope, to silicone, and more, then the shade, industrial, glass, modern, or Pinball related!

    Last is the Bulb, and many LEDs today are dimmable.....a Feature I would look for.

    One last thing to conside...something that looks great can create a bad reflection on the glass, so you may have to hold some up to test, or look into diffusing the light....one reason dimmable on LED bulbs will help.

    Of course, you can keep up with the baseball theme, and whether its your team, or a ball globe with a decal, etc.

    Have Fun!
