They say CCA that getting one of them very bright lights that are like sunlight work. They are very expensive though, but i am sure you can get them cheaper. I just decked my room in fairy lights and seaside posters. http://www.britebox.co.uk/?gclid=CJe0gd_HyYECFSBUEgodqwIUiw

Mr wallably
Katie there is a much better option, we changed the majority of lightbulbs in my house to daylight bulbs, they are blue in colour and much brighter but you get used to them in time and they help alot
