2. For another entry - Go visit their website - http://www.ftdc-utah.com/ or click here. Come back here, and tell them what you think. Do you like the design, is it user friendly? Give any advice you might have.
If you want to win 2 extra entries, post about this giveaway on your blog with a link back to this post.
You don't need a blog to enter, but if you don't have a blog, PLEASE leave me an e-mail address so I have a way to get in touch with you. Winner will have 48 hours to respond.
The winner will be picked next Friday at 5:00 p.m. Good luck!!!Remember, to be entered into the drawing, you at the very least need to come up with a name. I'm getting lots of entries without that. Thanks!!!
That is so pretty. It would look great in my dining room. Mine is terrible!!!
ReplyDeleteHow about "We'll Light Up Your Life"
ReplyDeleteI thought the site was user-friendly. The only suggestion I could make would be to create a space between the end of one pendant picture and the beginning of the next one.
smilingsal55[at]yahoo[dot]com
Ok, so I looked at the site and was thinking if the contact us info was more visible, or loaction of showroom...that would be the main thing that stood out to me. Oh, and maybe next to different lights on the home page a see all chandeliers, or see all ceiling fans, see all recessed lighting...does that make sense? I have been lurking here for a while and I love your blog! As for a name..."dynamic lighting" "all season lighting" "done right lighting" is that too hickish?!
ReplyDeletelol I have to admit, the first thing that came to my mind was "Bright Light!" from the grimlins! LOL But I think I would buy something from a store called "Lifestyle Lighting" :)
ReplyDeleteAs for the website, I think its beautiful, but the writing is a little small and the dark background with white writing makes it a little hard to read. As a graphics/website designer, I would suggest maybe having your menu's on the left have a dark background, but have all the other writing be larger in black on white background. It just looks more professional, and allow the lighting to speak for it's self. :)
For some reason "Well Lit" keeps coming to mine but then it would sound like a place that was not sober!! lol I'm going to have to think of some names. I agree with the comments about the Website. I think the pictures needed something between them, also it needs to stand out more. I think a color change would be good. I LOVED how you could click on a picture and then run your mouse over an item and it would show that part of the item close up. Never saw something like that before. Oh my BIL yelled out he thinks "Northern Lights" sounds good.
ReplyDeleteHow about this...."Lighten Up!"
ReplyDeleteI checked the site and I thought it looked fine. Oh, btw, I am posting about this giveaway just as soon as I publish this comment.
Yeah!!! I hope I win!!
That is so pretty. They have great stuff. This is a random giveaway right? Neighbors aren't excluded?
ReplyDeleteMy like the name Lighting for Life...
I am linking this in my Thursday post so enter me 2 more times!!!
Lightning electrics!or glass lightning! those are my only ideas for right this minute. Um, everything so far seems cool,they look like they will be a success!
ReplyDeleteHow about "Illuminations"?
ReplyDeletePerfect post to add to my self declared "home week".
Or "Luminescent" or "Radiant" since I am on a synonym kick.
ReplyDeleteI think the website is too dark. My eyes dance from the white writing to the pictures. I'd rather be drawn to the pictures and not have the competition.
"Lights with Attitude". I site was user friendly but everything was crunched a little too much. More space between pictures and description.
ReplyDeleteI like the wide variety of lighting choices offered and the selection is great. (Since I've been looking for a well-priced chandelier, I'm thrilled to have a new site to explore as well!) However, the site seems crowded, visually "busy" and maybe a little bit hodge-podge, for lack of a better word. At the left of the board, where I think the search bar was along with some logos or buttons and the credit card logos - that seems uneven and pushed up and into the top of the screen.
ReplyDeleteI actually love the existing name, but the bright yellow header against the dark gray reminds me of a bumblebee or even a AAA tow truck (at least in California, they're that bright yellow, LOL!) The light lettering is a bit harder to read against the dark background.
Color choices are personal, but my feeling is a soft neutral such as a warm mushroomy light brown or a light sagey-green contrasted with black lettering would be more calming and suggest timeless elegance. But maybe there also needs to be some soft cream to lighten things up. I think the colors used in the home of Mrs. Wilt of "The Sparrow's Nest" perfectly illustrate what I'm trying to describe. (The blog just moved to either blogger or blogspot, but the typepad blog houses most of the photos of their home, with this selection of colors throughout.)
For a name suggestion, how about "Glowing Reviews", "Let There Be Light", or "Light It Up". (Apologies to previous commenters if these sound close to some of your suggestions, but I actually had to think of some new ones since great minds think alike, LOL!)
Good luck to your friends with the new business!
Blessings,
Michelle (essiesthebest @ yahoo dot ca )

What about "The Light Stuff" for an idea? We have a horribly ugly gold plated sad looking fixture over our dining room table and we could SO use this to replace it with. Thanks SO much for a great giveaway -- here's hoping I win!
ReplyDeleteMy idea is taken, lol. I was thinking of a variation on You light up my life. Great minds, I tell you.
ReplyDeleteI think the sight is user friendly, but the background that the words and pictures on needs to be a bit lighter, in my opinion.
"Lighting the World, One Sale at a Time" or just simply "Lighting the World"

ReplyDeleteThe has some very night lights. I thought their site was easy to use.
Lightin' Up. Twin
ReplyDeleteName... HomeLight
ReplyDeleteWebsite comment.. I don't like the dark grey background with white text, I find it hard to read after a while, but otherwise the site is easy to navigate. Some of the pictures of white lights on a white background (ie under bathroom lights) make it hard to see the light fixture - try a coloured wall maybe?
Thanks for the contest!

How about "light Up your life"?
ReplyDeleteI am not crazy about the background color, it is a little hard to read.
tuesdayef(at)aol(dot)com
I am not good at the name game either. Here are my somewhat corny suggestions.
ReplyDeleteLighten up
Light Touch
The Light Touch
Light up your life
The Utah Light Company
Central Lights (Northwestern Lights, but they are not really North West)
The Lighting Company
The website is friendly. I think it looks nice, but maybe making it really simple to see all that they offer. From the start page it is difficult unless you click around to know that they offer a lot of different choices of lighting.
Happy Lighting or Lighting Internet Style.
ReplyDeletemckenziesmother@hotmail.com
the website is very well done. i am not a big website judge. i thnk its well done, it may need to be a little easier to navigate. the desing is great.
ReplyDeletemckenziesmother@hotmail.com
How about Mod Lighting?
ReplyDeleteurchiken at gmail dot com
My ideas for name:
ReplyDeleteRadiant Lights
Beaming Bright
All Lights - we got everything here
I like the hierarchy of the site (the way the site links), yet the homepage needs work because that's where you are going to get your customers
Things I might change:
- There is too much text on the first page
- The top left hand corner is the spot where people look first. Move those links to the bottom
- Move up the picture of the kitchen (get rid of the word welcome)
- On the left put the Links - Lighting, Mirrors, Fans, Vanities, Cabinets (see Home Depots site http://www.homedepot.com)
Good Luck with your new business :)
Oh, this is just beautiful. I checked out the website. Some of the writing is a little small and I'd like to see more space between the pictures and the descriptions. How about Sophisticated Lighting or Sensational Lighting? Too cheesy?

hmm I'm not very creative but I'll try how shot "need a light?" but maybe people will really confuse that for a cigareette company or maybe not i hope not well that's the best I could come up with. I went to their site and I also think their site is user friendly
ReplyDeleteLc_intocable at yahoo.com
For a name...The Lighting House? Some of the others i thought of were already mentioned.
ReplyDeleteAs for the site, much of the text is too small. Is that their logo in the top left corner? It looks washed out or faded or something. I don't think the site is bad, it just needs some personality. The owners should put more of themselves into it.
That is so pretty. Hmm....names. Thats a little harder. How about "Don't Turn Out The Lights." "N-Lighten Your Life." "Let There Be Light!" "On & Off" or "On 'N' Off." Names are such a hard thing to come up with! Hopefully they'll find something in here that they like. Thanks for the great giveaway fellow Utah'n. :) trishblack(at)juno(dot)com
ReplyDeleteI went to their site, and my first impression was the front page was too cluttered. There were too many words there. I think it's fine to showcase some of the products, but just show the picture, and maybe the name. Then when you click on that, you get all the details etc. It's too overwhelming to give it all at once. Also, I would suggest having the different categories on the left hand side, or in a bigger font size, since I didn't see those right away. I had to look around. Also have "Contact Us" in a very noticable place. That makes them seem like they are very customer service oriented, and willing to talk with the customer. Hope this helps! trishblack(at)juno(dot)com
ReplyDeleteHow about "Lighten Up" or "Light the Way" or even "Light in the dark"
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway
I don't know what the association is between the new company and the link you gave, but what about sticking with a similar name - Finishing Touch Lighting? As for the website, I don't like the main lighting page at all. It's really hard to figure out what you want. I would suggest limiting the choices on the main page - like "companies", "interior", and "exterior". Then, a sidebar could be added with all the individual options. Also, a sidebar would make the navigation much easier once you go to one of the pages. You could quickly move to a different section.
ReplyDeleteOk..checked out the web site...Great selection on the site, but some of the pages look a little too cluttered. For example, the home page has so much on it it makes the writing too small. Maybe limit the items or descriptions. Also, when you click on the Categories and the pics come up, I don't really like the line graphics between products. The site is very user friendly and love that you can mouse over products for a closer look. Great jobs guys and good luck

ReplyDeleteI think the site would look better if it was lighter. It looks so dark for a light website.
Third entry:

How about:

Website seems user friendly. I'd probably change the background color to something less dark, the dark grey is to "dark" compared to the light colored item photos. I'd also change the color of the help button since it blends too easily with the banner.
Wishing them the best of luck!
How about Creative Lighting?
ReplyDeleteThe website is really nice. I had no trouble looking around.
The name I would suggest, is "A Light Breeze"
ReplyDeleteAlso, the pictures on the web site look a bit dark!
Hope I win!
buttercuplynn@yahoo.com
How about "Follow the lighting" or "Bright Lighting".. I'm really bad at this I know lol....
ReplyDeleteI went to their website looks like they have some really great products, I would however since it is a lighting company, make the webpage look a little brighter and cheerful.
Thanks for the entry.
Oh it's so perfect. I've been searching for a dining room chandelier forever!
ReplyDeleteHow about Simply Lit?
I love the site and that the pics. are the main feature. Maybe just add the contact us up at the top instead of the bottom.
Thanks for a great giveaway!
How about:
ReplyDeleteLight House Lane
Light Source
Lighting Ways
Avenue of Lights
I'd have the header cleared up, it's too low of a resolution and comes across as cheesy. The left column is a bit distracting on search pages but other than that I think it looks nice!
ReplyDeleteWhat about "And Then there was Light" or is that too biblical?
ReplyDeleteOr "Switches and Bulbs"
or "A Light in the Window"
or "Under a Basket" from the childrens song "This Little Light of Mine"
or something simple like "Cozy Glow"
or "EnLIGHTenment"
The photos of the merchandise are great...nice, clear close-ups but overall, the design of the site needs a little more pizazz. It's pretty easy to navigate though.
How about "Casa de Luz" (House of Light) or "Luz Bella" (Beautiful Light) "Luz Brillante" (Brilliant Light)
ReplyDeleteTheir site is user-friendly, but a bit dark...maybe a lighter background, and larger brighter photos.
julie_ruhlman(at)hotmail(dot)com
That is so gorgeous!! My parents are building a new house and that would look awesome in my bedroom. :)
ReplyDeleteI thought of a name and then I saw it several times in the comments, but I'll say it too - Light Up Your Life.
I also looked at their website. The small white text is extremely hard to read and it's hard on the eyes.
I wish your friends the best of luck. I did notice on the site that there is a typo in the 50% clearance line. Please remind them that spelling/grammar really does count because people notice if you're messy. That said, I think the site it pretty easy to use, although not really all that attractive - and for me, looks count, although not as much as ease of use. tinawittmer(at)yahoo(dot)com
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely chandelier.
ReplyDeleteHow about Illuminating Designs.
I looked at the website. I thought it was crisp and classy.
How about Sophisticated Lighting or Classy Lighting?
ReplyDeleteThe site is good, but not very attractive from the first look. Maybe once they have a name they can spruce things up a bit there.
I would love this light!!!
Designed by Light.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great chandelier!
Are you going to have a list of their favorite names once you get everyones comments?
It's so beautiful! I would say "Lights of Destiny" or "Aura of Lights".Thanks for the great giveaway!

Boy could we use some improved lighting fixtures in my house!
ReplyDeleteOkay, a name for an internet lighting company. I kind of think I'd use their name "Smith Lighting" or their hometown "Appamatox Lighting". (Like how I'm making things up for them?) As long as it sounds good and professional (not cute!) and people can spell it.
Yes, I liked their website. Could be more aesthetically pleasing, but I thought it was well organized.

ReplyDeleteI love the site, I think its very easy to use. Love what's offered, including this chandelier.

I wish your friends success in their new business.
i like illumination even though it doesn't have light in it
ReplyDeleteI think the website is alright. I'd rather something a little lighter and warm since it's for home products and blue is a cold color.
ReplyDeleteAs for the name,
Luminescent Elegance
Elegant Illuminations

Oh, I love it & would love to win. How about - Light Of The Net, Light Up The Net, Lighting Up the Net??
ReplyDeleteThe site - oh, this was supposed to be about the website itself, but for another name how about The Lite Site?
ReplyDeleteOk now to the site - It did appear to be easy to use, the only suggestion I have for changes is the background color, the text on the gray background was not the most pleasant to look at. Everything else was great and it appears they have some great merchandise.
will be linking to you on my blog now.
I like the website, it seems very user friendly and the pictures all stand out well.
ReplyDeleteAs far as a name, I am so not creative! How about something like "Lighting life" or "Up in Lights"
Good luck!
Before I comment on the contest, I need to tell you that I have been trying hard to comment and have lost it many times already. Your settings do not like anything but blogger ID and I do not use my blogger ID any more. I may have to to comment, since I have lost my long comments about Finishing touches so many times already.
ReplyDeleteNow, I will try again!
I love their products and wondered about Finishing touches lighting with a byline of we brighten your world.
There products are sophisticated but the site seems lower end looking. The colors and design do not do it justice. The pictures are great and load fast which is a real plus.

What about Finish Touch Lighting
ReplyDeleteNice site, I'd move the about us to the top. Maybe use a lighter color, like neutrals instead of the black.
ReplyDeleteThat is a gorgeous light by the way, I'd love to win it!
Someone else said ti first, but I love "Lighten Up". Some of the web site's contrast in fonts/background make it hard on the eyes. :) Nice though.

How about Lighting the World? I think they need an intro page that tells about heir company and then from there you could go to products. They need to "lighten" up the color scheme also. Thanks for the chance to win.

ReplyDeleteI think the light is beautiful! I think it would look great in my entryway! I went to the website and my opinion is that the main picture doesn't "show off" lighting. I had to strain to find the lights. Other than that the site looks nice. How about "Let There Be Light". Anyway, thanks for the offer!
ReplyDeleteHow about Brighter than the sky Lighting. lol. I dunno.
ReplyDeleteTheir site is great, but they could showcase the lights a little more.
Thanks so much for the opportunity.
How about "Wanna Light?"
ReplyDeleteIt seems like the website is a little busy. The contact info should be easy to find, as well as the help button (help button was difficult to see on my computer). Also, under "lighting" the lines around the categories seems to be distracting.
Vintage Lighting!
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgous
The chandelier is gorgeous! I visited the site and I would suggest less wording on the front page. Photos of the beautiful lights that link to the page where the full description is...less is more. It's like information overload.
ReplyDeleteA name...the family name plus the word lighting.
I posted about the contest here:
http://acupofjoy.wordpress.com/joyful-finds/
Hubs and I both thought,
ReplyDelete"Bright Ideas," or "Bright Ideas Lighting."
I think the backgroud of the site needs to be light, and the writing dark, and the writing should be larger.
It's a beautiful chandelier
How about something like "Light up your life", Or "Brighten your Space"
ReplyDeleteAs for the website... I would suggest not having white text. At least for me, it is hard to read. Also be sure to check the site on various computers and browsers, as it will look different.
How about lighttheway.com
ReplyDeleteI think the website needs a more dynamic logo at the top left blending into the main heading. That is the first thing you see and it needs to catch your eye right away.
The Help menu at the top right is unreadable. I wanted to find out what it was so I hovered over it and discovered that it was Help. I would definitely fix that.
The navigation system is very good. The large view of the pictures is definitely a plus. I also like the shopping cart with the shipping calculator feature.

ReplyDeletethe color scheme for the website is a bit too dark. and the colors of yellow and dark grey make it hard to read the lettering. the site is user friendly. maybe the subs could be a little larger and more to the left instead of the right. thank you

ReplyDelete"You light up my life"
ReplyDeletei love this giveaway! awesome! hope i win! how about "brightening your way to a lighter life" :) well, it makes sense to me!
ReplyDeletesecond entry...i visited their website, and it looks great! altough its odd to have a dark, grey background when your business is lighting. lighten up the back!
ReplyDeleteOh how I love that chandelier....I am seriously drooling right now. I would save it for our house we are building in the mountains in 2 years! As for the sight..I suggest making the menu on the top right a bit more noticable..it gets lots a little. And maybe having drop downs with the categories under each main category. Name? Lights R Us? LOL too lame. How about, "Lighting the Way" or something like that...
ReplyDeletep.s. I am sharing your giveaway on my Free on Friday post today!
"Lighting the Way" is my name
ReplyDeleteCount me in to this awesome giveaway
Dream Home Lighting!
ReplyDelete(everyone wants a dream home!)
What pretty lighting. I love the website!
Tell them good luck on their venture.
Enter me! LOL. I love that light!
1. Just an idea:
ReplyDeleteCharming Elegance Lighting
2. I went to their site. I think the top banner is rather unprofessional, with bad-quality lettering. It's not very easy to use the site, as the links and font are small and the pages are cluttered. The white text against the black background is somewhat too stark, making the words almost glare and hard to read. There are definitely some nice products, there, though.

"Bright Lights"?? Great giveaway!!
ReplyDeleteI will blog about this on my blog!
Thanks!

Lovely Lighting!
ReplyDeleteOh This would look fabulous in our dinning room! Our 1970's flying saucer looking fixture just has to go!
ReplyDelete"An Enlightened Home"
I think the gray is too drab....it doesn't say beautiful light. For aesthetics something a bit more cheerful. The site itself is easy enough to navigate. My two cents :o)

How about "Lighting Up"
ReplyDeleteHow about: Lighting the Way
ReplyDeleteMy suggestion:
ReplyDeleteEpiphany Lighting
I think they have a good start on their website, but it needs tweaked here and there. Not quite professional enough looking just yet, but well on it's way. I wish them much success!

ReplyDeleteOk, that is a great light and I so want to win it..... Here is my title, Lighting up your world one light at a time. I know, it's probably stupid but I thought it was cute. I would go to a blog/shop with that name.LOL
ReplyDeleteTrixi
I went to the site and it is great. The only change I might suggest is in coloring. It is a little drab and considering your audience will mainly be women. I might punch the coloring up a little. Other than that, it is very user friendly.
ReplyDeletethey have some really nice stuff.
ReplyDeleteHow about "Light of your Life" - old saying with a twist.
lighting up your house inc.?

How about "Designer Lighting".
ReplyDeleteThe website was easy to navigate. I didn't care for the photo on the front page. I would make it more classy...kind of has a Home depot feel.
Love the chandelier you are giving away & have a perfect spot for it.
This is AMAZING! YOU'RE amazing!
ReplyDeleteI like Illumination Lighting! or Light up your Life!

The white background is to bright, it makes it hard on my eyes to read the black print.
ReplyDeleteI don't care for the gray around border, it is dull looking and manly looking.
It loads fast and it is easy to navigate.

Overall, the site is great. Needs some color. Also, I like your subcategories, but it would be helpful to list them in the sidebar when you open a certain category (see lightingdesign.com - I've been shopping around for lights a lot lately and I really like their website). I like to be able to compare different items - did you have that feature? Lastly, when I clicked on Mirrors, the page opened with candles at the top. Love to give more suggestions if you want them.
I would love this chandelier - hopefully I'll win!
Wow! What a gorgeous light! How about Starlight or Starbright Lighting?
ReplyDeleteLuxurious Lighting co.
ReplyDeleteThe Sophisticated Lighting Co.
I think the name needs to reflect the beauty and elegance of the items they are selling. Gorgeous lights, mirrors, etc. :)
I also thought the clean and simple look of the site showcased the pieces beautifully. It's easy to navigate and I enjoyed browsing. Wish they had the about me page done lol. :)
Thanks for the gorgeous giveaway! :)

My name suggestion is: Seeing the Light
ReplyDeleteMy website comments: I like the category breakdowns and I think they did a great job with the photos. They show the lighting very well and with enough detail to make a decision. The only thing I didn't like is that the first thing I saw when I went to the site was a comment about Want a Better Price? or something like that. That put me off a little bit because it starts me thinking that prices are padded or a little higher than they could be. I think it's fine to have that on your site but not in such a prominent spot where it may offend regular customers.

Ok Ok, I know I said I was done bt once my mind gets going it is hard to stop it!
ReplyDeleteWhat about.......................
(drumroll please)
.................................
"The Lighting Spot"
OR
"Spotlighting"
I have also checked out the site and it is very user friendly and has good pictures!
Here I posted about the giveaway:
ReplyDeletehttp://giveawaycity.blogspot.com/2008/08/chandelier-giveaway-at-our-cozy-nest.html
do I have the right end date?
Also thought of another name:
Beauty Lighting
Mystic Lighting
is the contest for international?
ReplyDeleteVery romantic and beautiful old century look. I think "Changing Season's Lighting" would make a elegant name for a new company. Something people would remember easily when telling their family or friends where they purchased their new lighting addition. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great giveaway! I have a fantastic spot for it in the new house! As far as a name, how about Lifestyle Lighting or Landmark Lighting.
ReplyDeleteI looked around their site and I do think it's very user friendly. The navigation is simple and easy to understand.
ReplyDeleteHi! I made a link about your contest on my blog: http://ann-without-e.livejournal.com/
ReplyDeleteEmail: saffires at yahoo.com
I would suggest on the website: make some text changes, so that different paragraphs are clearly distinguished from each other, i.e., perhaps of different colors and styles that easily draw the eye to each one.
The link bar on the left could be made a little more stylish/smooth.
What also stood out is the text describing the lights is distracting from the images and makes the page look disorganized. Instead of giving all the info about each light on the main page, it would probably help to make the photos larger on the main page, with just the titles, then when clicked on give more details. For a professional-looking page, the "little details" like fonts make a big difference. I hope this helps!
For a store name, maybe Delighted. :-) That would be fun to make logos for.
Hi! I just found your post:) Love the chandelier that is to be given away. As far as a name goes I think "The Light House" would be an easy name to remember, I think you have to consider that in internet selling, I know I would have no trouble remembering the name should I need new lighting:) I would love to win the chandelier because it seems to be able to go with any decor someone might have.
ReplyDeleteI liked the site but maybe the catagories could be listed differently. I am going to post this on my blog, sure hope to win, what a wonderful prize!
*Rondell*
How about "Light It Up"? Great giveaway. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHere's the link on my blog: http://goodintentionsqueen.blogspot.com/2008/08/win-this.html
Just visited their site...it was easy to navigate, but lacked color. The all silver & white color palette seems too sterile. And I agree that the spacing seems crowded.
ReplyDeleteLovely products!
vintage lighting
ReplyDelete"Light's On!"
ReplyDeleteWith the exclamation point!
I love the light...I would leave it on all the time!
I'm going to go with: "Light your path." as in Psalm 119:105
ReplyDelete[ n Nun ] Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.
Psalm 119:104-106
I think that the website could use some more color or a beautiful header.
~ Lacie
i would love to see more color and maybe something "flashy" to catch your eye... like an flash video. i love the pic in the front, beautiful kitchen but i had to squint to see the equally beautiful lights!other than that i love the way the lights are categorized...
ReplyDeleteNicole, just wanted to let you know that I posted about your giveaway on my blog, stop by to see:)
ReplyDelete*Rondell*
OK..I am never good at the naming game! I am pregnant with #3 and having a terrible time deciding! :)
ReplyDeleteMy idea was "Porchlight" and the reason I say that is because a porchlight is inviting and gives the idea of comfort in a home?
Good Luck!
How about Utah Lights, Utah Radiance?
ReplyDeleteI didn't love the site the visual appeal was a little blah. I didn't like the gray and the white and the picture of the kitchen on the front page seemed generic it didn't speak "light store" to me. I'd love to see a picture of a light fixture as the main image.
and I'll be linking this for more chances!
How about "Lighting for Life"
ReplyDeleteThank you for the chance to enter the contest.

"TOUCH OF LIGHT"
ReplyDeletethey could use TOL for the abbreviation
or
"LIGHTS & MORE"
(since they also sell hardware, cabinets)
"SIMPLY LIGHTS"
as far as the website. there needs to be more of a space between the desciptions and the next item.
etc, on the first page, the pics and descriptions almost run togehter.
maybe add a frequent customer incentive
the lights and mirrors with the brushed silver finishes are difficult to see on the white background.
pick a warmer color than the light gray side bar. i like the gray so, dont get me wrong, its just too light.
thanks for the opportunity to express our opinions. :)
How about: "Turn us On!"
ReplyDeleteGet your mind out of the gutter! ;o)
Lovely Lighting.
ReplyDeleteSimple and it's an alliteration which I love. Great giveaway! Best of luck to your friends!
Great giveaway! How about Utah Lighting Co. or A Warm Glow? I will think about it some more and get back to you!
ReplyDeleteLove it--it's beautiful. How about "And then there was light"? Not sure if anyone said that already
ReplyDeleteHow about Lunar Lighting
