I can't be helpful on that one. While I haven't done anything anywhere near that amazing with decorating, getting good, or even decent, pictures of what I do seems to be an impossibility for me. I have one of those commercial fry warmers, basically an adjustable-height aluminum frame with two fixtures for heat bulbs, that a friend from a local restaurant asked me if I wanted because he was getting rid of it. My first instinct was to say no, don't need more clutter. But then it occurred to me that maybe I could use regular bulbs in it instead of heat bulbs and use it for lighting for pictures. So we'll see if that helps when I get around to trying it. With heat bulbs, it could also function as a warming station if I ever found myself doing any kind of sugar work... not that that's in the plans. Worst case, I can just find it a new home if it doesn't prove useful. Even if that home is the dump.
Edit: and it just occurred to me that sitting under the lights might be a handy place for bowls of chocolate to stay a little warmer during the winter as well.
