Custom Night Light Box
Instruction
Information
I modified a box file from the XTool projects and added a faux stained glass look.
A fun and cute project!
Instruction
Step1: Gather Materials
I used the materials shown and a hot glue gun(not shown)
Step2: Cut out all pieces
Cut out all pieces with XTOOL laser
This faux stained glass look can be used behind any cut outs or any project, add a light source behind it and enjoy!
I slightly modified a box file, a quick tip if pieces don't fit exactly is to take a nail file and gently file sides of tabs.
Step3: Prepare the Shrinky Dink plastic
Cut the shrink plastic to cover the cut outs.
Color one side of the shrink plastic with alcohol ink markers, or leave it as is for a frosted glass look.
Step4: Glue shrink plastic to back of cut out.
With a foam brush, apply glue to back of wooden cut out.
Place shrink plastic and press down gently, put aside to dry.
Step5: Assemble box and enjoy!
Assemble the pieces, I used hot glue.
I left the top piece unglued to easily remove the LED light to turn it on and off.
I plan to make a few changes next time I make this, but overall it was a fun project
