LEDs (light-emitting diodes) are changing the way we light dollhouses and room boxes due to their small size, low heat output, and very long life — but many of us need a bit of help to understand how to use them.
For general lighting, LEDs come in warm- and cool-white options but there are no rules about where to use which; it’s a matter of personal preference. Many people choose warm white for living spaces but cool white for kitchens and “work” spaces, or for a more modern look. Either can work outside a window or door to suggest daylight, depending on the time of day you want. Or, you may want to stick with just one color for a consistent appearance.
