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 !
