BEAM N READ BLOG HOP....IF THAT IS WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR, YOU HAVE COME TO THER RIGHT PLACE!!!

So.....I am going on a trip and I was given one of these "Beam N Read" lights to review and try out...... now I can't find it..... I am sure you have been to the other bloggers that have posted about this light and how they use it but....here is how I use mine....that is....when I can find it.

So here is a picture of what it looks like....

This is what it looks like when it is off... It has a red lens for night vision when you are switching from lighted to dark conditions.

Where is this light?

I used it to thread this needle.....boy did it make a difference. I also have the magnifying lens that fits right on it for extra help......(now some do not come with this magnifying lens so you need to be sure you know which one you want and which one you are getting).

The light in my pfaff does not work sometimes so I just put this Beam N Read around my neck (it has an adjustable strap so you can have the light where you need it most) and problem is solved. You hardly know you are wearing it, that is how light it is.


Let me see......I was reading in bed the other day......maybe it is upstairs? Hummmm where can this light be?



Can you believe that people actually make houses with no lights in the bedrooms....so I was using my Beam N Read light to see my stash. Yes, I know, it does look like a tornado blew threw.....what can I say???


I just hang that Beam N Read light around my neck and my hands are free to compare fabrics......hummmm maybe it is lost in the fabrics? Now, wouldn't you want to be a Beam N Read light now....to be lost in fabrics....oh...the smell.....the feel..... This truly is a quilters delight if it loves fabric.



So my son used it to work on his computer....I wonder if he hid it from me?


This is not a joke David.....Where is that light!!!!


I guess I need to stand in line to use it...buy why? It is my light!!!



I know I used it to give me more light in marking the center of this stitchery.....

I must have the light for my trip......it will be great to read in the car, change CD's......and if I can't sleep in the hotel I can do some stitchery and not bother anyone or walk to the bathroom without tripping over people's luggage or shoes....(now that will be a first).



Can you guess where my light was?


Give you one guess, be creative and tell me where you think I found it. As you know, I am giving away one of these lights to one of you out there. So won't you help me find it? No wrong answer...no worries about shipping.


Susan over at Hanging on by Needle and Thread is also reviewing and giving away a Beam N Read light today...so go over and see if she knows where hers is....maybe she will loan it out to me?


If you just can't wait to see if you have won one, you can always go over to Kelly's, I have a Notion and purchase one or get more info. I know there are different versions and prices, so go take a look see.


Thanks Kelly for this fun blog hop and all of you hoppers out there. A special thanks to Bob, marketing manager of Beam N Read.


Friday Patsy Thompson and Kelly at I Have a Notion are giving their thoughts on this awesome light.

I just had to add that this light truly is a delight to travel with. It doesn't take up much space, is light to have around your neck, you can adjust it to where you need the light to be and it doesn't bother anyone else in the process. I made this post before traveling in case I didn't get back in time...but I used this light on my trip and I do believe it will be my traveling companion for now on. Thinking of getting my mother one and my older friend who has trouble seeing (she will love the magnifying glass and the extra light).


I will chose a winner Saturday.




Oh...it was also great because I wanted to buy fabric in the hotel, husband was asleep, really wanted the fabric...so got my little Beam N Read out....oh yes....this Beam N Read really does like fabric, it is enabler.













Comments is closed...thanks for coming by.

  7. Rhonda the RamblerJune 30, 2011 at 6:58 AM

    My guess is that the light is either (a) around your neck or (b) in the bag already packed for your trip. Both of these options seem like something I would do. LOL thanks for sharing.

    If your house is anything like my house when my kids were all living at home I would have to say your son "borrowed" the light, set it down somewhere and now he can't remember where he laid it. I would check his room! Thanks for the giveaway.

    Since it is so light it is probably hanging around your neck! Did you check? See I told ya 8-) lol

  21. DebrafromMDJune 30, 2011 at 9:37 AM

    The light is probably in one of the places you have already checked. That is what always happens to me. I would guess it is hanging out at your sewing machine hidden by your latest project.

    If you're like me, it's probably hanging around your neck. I do that all the time with my pin cushion. I have one that goes on my wrist. And I'll walk around and around looking for it, only to discover it's already on my wrist. Duh!

    Well, if you are anything like me, you might have left your Beam N Read in with your stash. I think I could lose a small child in there sometimes! I am interested to see where you left your light. Let it shine free I say!

    Well if you are like me, the light is so light you forgot it was there, pulled off your shirt before bed, and tossed it all into the dirty clothes hamper. Or maybe it is under your pillow waiting to help you read tonight? Looks like a great light--if you can just train it to be where you need it!

  49. AnonymousJune 30, 2011 at 1:14 PM

    At first I was tempted to say that your light was hanging around your neck, enabling you to look in all of those places. Then I read how it enabled you to sneak out while your husband was sleeping so that you could buy some fabric that you really, really liked.

    I figured out that if I had used one to do buy fabric, and who doesn't need more, the first thing that I would do when I got back to the hotel room would be to set it down amongst the new fabrics to look at them adoringly, dreaming about what I'd do with them. It therefore must still be with your newest fabric acquisitions because your hubby woke up and you grabbed everything to hide it all in the bag so he wouldn't see what that light enabled you to buy! Anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking to it! I hope that it leads me to win one of those wonderful lights! lol

    I think you found that light in the pantry where you were hiding out in the middle of the night. You got up to potty and those fabulous chocolates you bought on clearance after Easter were calling your name from inside the pantry where you'd hidden them from everyone. You snuck down quiety using your light to guide the way and snacked on all those yummy chocolates. But.oops, you forgot and left the light there.

    I think you found it underneath your son's bed just where he hid it because even though he's young he needs it as much as I do and I'm way older than you! Because if I had it I could stitch or sew at night and even use my Kindle comfortably as I am getting older my eyes aren't great anymore and I really need a great light like this. Thanks so much for the chance to win and I too have seen the light though I don't think from you because your son, being the devil that he is, has hidden it again. Good luck in finding it.

    Oh I like that - using it to see to buy fabric online in the middle of the night when everyone is asleep. I've done that before, but without good lighting :) I think that you found your light in your suitcase or your purse, right where you had put it. Thanks for a chance to win.

    I am thinking that maybe you left it in the car, in the glove box or the arm rest thingy. Hope you found it.

    My first thought was that it was round your neck, but other people have said that too. So I think it's ..... already in the post on the way to my house!!

    I suspect the light was around your neck? Great review.

    At first I thought it would be around your neck but then thought you probably packed it in the car trip things already. I have done that many a time.

    I know someone else has already said this but my guess was that it was around your neck. I wear glasses (sometimes) but can't wear them when I am on the computer so I put them on top of my head. I can't count the times I am running around looking for my glasses and they are right there with me on top of my head.

    This light would be so wonderful when working on my embroidery work at night or when reading in bed. I am hoping to be a winner.

    I'm wondering if you left it in the bathroom since that is a great place to do some quiet reading....

    Don't you remember? When you were searching through your stash (instead of cleaning up the kitchen, like your husband thought), you heard your husband out in the hallway...quickly you doused the light, tucked it between your pile of red fabrics, waited until the coast was clear, then carefully tiptoed back to the kitchen, and splashed some water and flour on your face (to emphasize how hard you were working). As your husband entered the kitchen, you let out a moanful sigh, declaring how tired you were, as you poured yourself a glass of wine and sat down to rest! (Look in the pile of red fabrics for your light!)

    Around your neck most likely. What a handy gadget- i need one for every room and the car. Have a safe weekend.

    Perhaps it is under your pillow where you were last reading late at night - or in your stash, shining its light on all those lovely fabrics.
    Thanks for the chance to win such a nice beam of light..
    Warmest regards,
    Anna

    Very cute post. Love how you used it to select fabric. I should have thought of that one last night, when I was wondering about thread selection. Great idea.

    I'll be curious where you found your Beam N Read Light. By your nightstand?

    Were you already wearing the light? I've done that with my reading and sun glasses. :-)
