Reduced light above shelf layout

First thing that came to mind was the LED lights in the flexible tubes used for exterior accent lighting around the top at the back of the shelf. usually a holiday item, perhaps you could find them in warm white.

Bob,

I used LED fixtures from Harbor Freight. They came in four light bar, which I separated into individual lights. I used plastic wire mold in between which I painted black. I have a different situation, as there is a boxed in beam that I mounted the lights on. I think the whole project was about fifty bucks.

I also had some LED strip lighting that a friend gave me that in incorporated into ceiling fixtures. I placed the strips above sand blasted glass panes as recessed lighting.  These can be seen in photo two, three and four.

I used a rope light all the way around, between the wall and the track. That was 10 years ago when I built it, so now I would use the LED strips instead.

I would use either the led rope light or the led strips depending on location of where you plan to mount the lights and what level of brightness you desire.
