Cricut just released the Ultimate LED lamp that could help you "see more and do more" with your DIY projects in a bright craft room! It was perfectly designed for all of your projects, whether it's scrapbooking, sewing, photography, jewelry making, weeding vinyl, small piece projects and so much more!
The Cricut Bright 360 lamps comes in a table and floor model options. Depending on your desk's availability space, choose the one that's best for you.

What does the lamp do?
Its big, broad head evenly lights up your entire workspace and just a gentle push of your hand will pivot, rotate, and move the light exactly where you need it.
The lamp can adjust full color temperature, adjust from warm to cool white giving you cast ideal, natural lighting without shadows or hot spots.
Bright 360 lamps give us rich, accurate colors with an high CRI rating of 95. CRI stands for Color Rendering Index.

How bright does it get?
Cricut Bright 360 lamps have fully adjustable brightness up to 3000 lux* (floor lamp) or 1500 lux* (table lamp). Simply use the slider control to adjust brightness to the desired level.
As a crafter, I love that I can control daylight temperature for getting the colors correct while crafting especially taking daily product photos.
Lux is a measurement of “illuminance,” or how intense or bright the light is that falls on a particular surface area. Lumens is a measurement of “luminous flux,” or the total amount of light being emitted by the source in all directions. In other words, SUPER BRIGHT!

How long do the LEDs last?
Cricut Bright 360 Lamps have an array of LED bulbs in the lamp head. These long-lasting LEDs have been tested to last over 40,000 hours. No need to worry about changing the LED bulbs! Keep in mind that the LEDs in Cricut Bright 360 lamps are not replaceable, and they do NOT get hot! That's a plus!

What lamp is right for me?
If you don’t have a big area to work with, I would go with the Cricut 360 floor lamp. If you have a long and wide table, the Cricut 360 table lamp may be a good option for you. The handle sticks out, so you’ll need space between your wall and desk for it to move around.
The best way to choose is by thinking about the space where your lamp is going to be.
How much is the lamp and where can I get it from?
The table lamp retails for $199 and the floor lamp retails for $247. You can purchase the lamps at Cricut.com, Amazon, Michaels and Joanns. Cricut Bright 360 is only available in the US and Canada at this time.

What's assembly like?
Assembly is so simple — in fact, you don’t even need any tools! To ensure maximum adjustability and stability so you can get light exactly where you need it, you won’t be able to disassemble the lamp once put together.
All you need to do is insert the lamp stem into the base during assembly and lamp head into stem for floor lamp. You'll hear a small click which indicates the parts are securely fastened together.

Here's a question for you.. Are you waiting to purchase one? Do you have another lamp you already love? Do you have the Bright 360 lamp now? If so, which one did you choose? The price isn't for everyone, and that's unfortunate. I understand completely. Leave me a comment down below! :)
