Take your favorite laser cutter project to the next level with programmable lights. This gorgeous piece of art uses WLED, a free, open-source light controller program with the Adafruit Mini Sparkle Motion board to give you easy artistic control of your lighting.

Laser etched acrylic layers carry the light deeply into the center of your design.

Create sunsets, seasons, and moonscapes with just a few clicks on your phone.

Make an adorable mushroom light strand out of hot glue and addressable fairy light pixels. Control the strand with a Mini Sparkle Motion board and WLED, a free, open-source light animation and control program.

Glue them to a log or a mirror, your hat or anything else that would benefit from some glowing mushroom decorations. This is an easy beginner project with no coding and an option for a no-soldering version also. It's a fantastic project to do with kids. Decorate your home with adorable glowing nature!
