Try "Egg Crate Lighting"

They are actually lighting covers.

Here's a link showing you...

The actual name is light diffusing material. Egg crate has became a generic reference.

Home Depot has it in their lighting section. its even labeled egg crate.

ok thanks everyone and i looked at homedepot enter light dessuser and eggcreate and it didnt come up with anything

 

[Paintbug]

you have to go to the store as with most things its not on their site . take a look at the link Andrew posted thats exactly what you are looking for.

Y'know, this whole site is amazing if you back off and look at it: we talk in alphabet soup and partial words, not to mention nicknames. It's a wonder we understand ourselves.

puffer21,
It might help in the home depot search if you spell 'egg crate' properly (not eggcreate), as well as 'diffuser'. rather than dessuser. Spelling may not be a big issue when you're writing to people who know what you are talking about, but homedepot.com hasn't a clue. Though I teach English, I am terrible at spelling and often find my searches don't turn up a thing.

ok thanks but i did spell it right on homedepot.com but i have done that before.
