UNIQUE PHOTO NIGHT LIGHT

Here's an easy project ... a photo night light
First I purchased a shadow box picture frame. At the hardware store I purchased a battery operated night light.
With a sharp craft knife I slit an opening into the back of the shadow box frame. The night light was inserted and affixed into the opening using a glue gun.

Next a colorful photo of a skier racing down the mountain side was printed on Super Color Back Light Film
The photo was cut from the sheet and inserted into the front of the shadow box.
Light from the battery operated night light illuminates the photo, a great way to light a darken hallway.

Photo Night Light

WOW ... what a great night light.

This project began with a Night Light which I found in the
children's section at IKEA in Schaumburg, Illinois.
I noticed that the curved panel was approximately the size of a sheet of paper.
So I bought this night light for $13.00 and took it home.

Next I removed the screw at the top which holds the whole thing together.
I removed the front curved panel and remounted the top to the frame.
The rest was easy.
I printed a picture "mirror image" on Super Color Back Light Film using my HP 890 color ink jet printer.
I trimmed 1/4" off the length and 3/4" off the side.
The Back Light Film, with printed side toward the inside light, slid perfectly into the track around the front of the assembly.

And that's all there was to it !
