Clean and Sand
Remove all pieces from the laser bed. Brush or blow away smoke residue.
Lightly sand all edges and surfaces to remove any charring and make assembly smoother. Pay extra attention to the tabs and slots—they should fit snugly but not too tight.
If desired, apply a quick stain (light oak or pastel spring colors) or paint accents on the bunnies/eggs now. Let dry completely.
Assemble the Light
- Slot the side panels together using the built-in tabs and slots.
- Place your LED tea light or fairy lights inside (secure fairy lights with small tape dots if needed).
- If convenient, you can cut a sheet of transparent tracing paper with scissors and place it over the front.
Optional: Add a tiny drop of wood glue to a few joints for permanence
Enjoy Your Easter Glow
Turn on the light and enjoy the cozy spring atmosphere. These look wonderful on a windowsill, Easter brunch table, or as handmade gifts for family and friends.
Happy Easter crafting! 🐰🥚✨
