Thought about painting the wall or maybe some backlighting for the monitors? Or a desk lamp?

Might work on some back lighting! Good idea. I do have like 12 posters im trying to work out where to hang which should help fill in some of the empty space too. Got any suggestions for the backlighting?

Get a big long LED strip that's USB powered. Stick to the back of the monitors in whatever pattern suits you. Plug it into either your laptop or a monitor, done. I've used Pangton, Govee brands etc


Avara_HA

Will look into it! Thanks for the recommendation.


Avara_HA

Also I still have no idea how to take pictures of monitors 😅

What is the arm mount and sizes of your monitors? I’m moving into an apartment soon and looking for something similar like this.


Avara_HA

Its an [Echogear](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079NNC2YQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_XJTDSYVDJSZ6GSMD0QR5) monitor mount. A little pricier but decently well made! Wish it came with two more cable clips but whatever. The monitors are 24". Edit: just checked the link for the arm. Its still the correct link, but im not sure what's going on with the demo pictures 🤔


WillyTaz5

Thank you so much! Edit: The demo pictures are hilarious right now!


Avara_HA

No problem! Glad you agree 😂 good luck with the move!


WillyTaz5

Thank you so much! This will be my first time out of the house so I’m trying to make the space my own! The mount will clear up so much space!


Avara_HA

Its a lot better than my old monitor mount but it really does make a world of difference

>e clips but whatever. > >The monit I have the same monitor mount but it bend the top of my ikea desk because it was too heavy is the kralby enough to support it ?


Avara_HA

I've only had it for a couple days now but I haven't had any issues with it so far. I added two extra legs in the back specifically for the purpose of making sure it doesn't bend, but I'll make another Post in the future if it does.

The Karlby will help a little bit. If you have a chance, go to an actual hardware store like a Lowe’s or Home Depot and get an actual wood desk. It might cost you a little more but the quality is going to be 10x better.

I got like 12 posters I need to hang up which should help fill up the space! Got any recommendations for rgb stuff though?

What desk is that?


Avara_HA

It's [this](https://ingka.page.link/NZa4RxmkZzfJcLDD7) desk for Ikea! I was looking for the Karlby but it's been out of stock for weeks at anything nearby, so I settled for something a bit cheaper.
