Eyestrain can be a real problem when staring at a monitor all day, so in my office at home I\u2019ve always shined a desklamp at the shades behind my monitor (or, during the day would open the shades!).

That became this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I love instructables.com \u2013 if you\u2019re a DIY\u2019er like me it\u2019s a great resource for instructions and inspiration.

I was surprised to see it make it to the front page for a couple days, and it was featured in their weekly email blast, too.
