Illuminated Deer and Forest Scene Shadow Box Lantern for 3mm Material

Information

      I created this 3D Layered Tea Light Lantern with a Stag Forest Scene to give makers and craft enthusiasts a beautifully dimensional layered design that transforms a simple light into an atmospheric piece of art. The file is thoughtfully separated into multiple layers that stack together to form a detailed forest silhouette scene — perfect for laser cutting with your preferred machine and creating lanterns that cast rich, layered shadows.

The design features a serene woodland scene complete with trees, wildlife silhouettes, and layered background elements that create depth when assembled. When a tea light, fairy lights or LED candle is placed inside, the cut layers let light shine through, producing a warm glow and dramatic shadow play that enhances any room’s ambience.

I made this file for makers who love projects that combine layered artistry with light and atmosphere. You can customise your finished lantern with the materials and colours you choose — from wood and acrylic to MDF — to match your décor or gifting vision.

Included in the download is a file that works with most design workflows, ready to import, cut, and assemble into a striking 3D lantern piece. Whether you’re crafting home décor, seasonal lighting accents, thoughtful gifts, or products to sell, this layered forest lantern design adds character, depth, and a warm, inviting glow to your creative projects.
