My New Scrap Table

I finally got my new scrap table from Ikea on Sunday!!!  This is what it looks like....the Varde Base Cabinet:
The table is heavier than it looks!  But my goodness, it's so worth the weight and the wait! lol 
I've been searching for the perfect table and found this a few weeks ago.  After browsing through the store, it fits what I was searching for.  So, we went home and made sure we have the room for it.  And now, it looks awesome-woohoo!!  We actually use the room as her scraproom/his computer room.  My hubby plays his online computer game, World of Warcraft (aka W.O.W.) while I scrap.  What a great way to spend some quality time, right?! lol
The table comes up to 35 inches tall, 70 inches long, and 25 inches deep.  The table is the perfect height for me because I prefer to create standing up.  Now, I need the right lamp for my table....any suggestions?
I'll post some pictures of my scrap space once I get things organized.
