Where I live the power fails ALL THE TIME so I have these little lights hanging around the house where I can  flick them on when the time comes. Without a shade they can be kind of bright and wifey doesn't like the glare so I designed these. The area without holes just covers the bulb area and light is free to diffuse through the rest of the shade. I suggest you print them in white or yellow. If you hang them from a long cord simply slide the shade up to turn the lights on or off; for short cords use the hole provided. On Amazon search for: “5 Packs Camping Light Bulb Portable LED”
