    Not sure if anyone told you yet but I used to work in the lighting department at home depot. If you buy LED Daylight bulbs...you will get the white light finished opposed to the soft white yellowish finish that you have

    I have been seeing lots of these diys using the extension cord method. I personally feel that method is for temporary use. Straight wiring a wire to an extension cord could start a fire. Just thought i would put that out there from experience.

    I did this and it worked. The only problem I had was that I used regular globe light bulbs and it was like sitting in front of the sun. It was way too much light.
    I went back to my two lamps on each side of my vanity, and it's perfect
    I suggest if you do this, get a dimmer switch...

    Y'all can get a drawers or a while desk from Letgo or a resale shop and spray paint it white. For the LED lights you can order $20 vanity lights set from AliExpress. Save you some money. Or buy already made vanity mirror for $40.
