Eric at Modern Self just made a great post about how to craft an arty LED Lightbox all by yourself (mommy will be proud). While I haven’t experimented with any sort of illuminated art in my own house, I can definitely see the draw. It allows you to create a bright and unique focal point in any room you need one. The basic materials for this project were a Ribba frame and Trettioen LED light strips from IKEA. While it took Eric and friends a good amount of time to complete the project, you should have a quicker and easier time with it thanks to Modern Self’s thorough directions. It’s nice to know that for well under $100 and a little craftsmanship, you can create a piece of art for your place that will have everyone asking “how’d you do that?”
