Gift Ideas: Easy Awesome Creative Gift!
 
more help plz with LED light stores plz thx.

Easy gift:
Buy 16"x20"Shadow box frame from Michaels or arts and crafts store....................$17
Buy "moonbeams" light up toy from target to take apart and use for LED....................$12
Buy a 15 3/4" x 19 3/4" plastic (50-50 white transparent)...................................... ................$11
Buy any reflective paper, even a mirror but thats expensive.
Hang up on wall and watch, drugs optional

of course you can buy a smaller frame and cut cost in half.

the light goes thru all the colors within 60 seconds. it also strobes, as well as strobes to the beat of any music playing near it.

you guys are slackers...

Ok i got another STi specific...or WRX or whatever you want it to say.

You need:
Sandblaster
Nice piece of wood
gas torch
painters tape
google images
photoshop maybe to make a better stencil print out.


put tape on wood...overlay stencil...cut out with xacto knife everything you want to remain smooth ( the letters)

Sandblast perpendicular as to not tear tape off.
Sandblast until effect is achieved.

Take out, blow off sand, and burn lightly with a torch to add more effect to the sandblasted wood.

Peel tape off and reveal your work of art.

yeah i've been shopping all day, out of my element.

is it a threadjack if its my own thread? who hates people who dont know how to turn on their lights in the rain?

What do i do to them you ask? i drive in the middle lane, wait for them to ALMOST pass me, and cut in front of them with my signal on...they flash their lights, and i flash mine :D

I'm still trying to picture what the hell your describing in the first post :confused:

but here ya go.

Buy a gift box with bow.

Step one: You cut a hole in the box...

LOL thats a classic^

the 1st post is a shadow box, which is basically a 2 inch deep picture frame...you take the clearglass out of the frame and replace it with an opaque plastic that will still let light thru...then you buy the toy with the LED lights in it, take it apart and stick it in the box, and put reflective paper behind it (so its even brighter)

It really is the coolest thing i've ever seen.

or go buy Shane Co's $100 pearl necklace...or give her your own version of one ;)
