Fairy House Light

[MandyJoKal]

My first draft of a fairy house light came out great. I need to frost the plexiglass windows a bit more, and make a few other minor adjustments, but I am happy with this. I came up with the idea this past weekend and was able to accomplish it successfully. I will likely go down on the engrave settings to save time. Some were 170 and some 125. I think I will go with 125. Also, the inside will be stained the same color as the outside.

Fantastic work! You have that wood effect down! Really cool!

Oh, that is very cute! If you want to use the acrylic windows you have already made, you could just sand the insides to frost them.

This is so cute. Wood looks so realistic!

What a fun design! The wood effect is great.

I’ve found that in an “emergency” a very light spray of white spray paint will also produce a frosted effect.

Shoji lantern overload

I hauled the pieces in my suitcase, and my nieces helped with weeding and assembly. (Table decorations for my parents’ 60th anniversary celebration.)

That is magical. The wood looks very real.

Love the wood! Projects like these just make you smile during assembly. Great job!
