home: made [ marquee light ]

Lights for our home come in all shapes and sizes. One particular trend that has taken off over the last couple of years is marquee style letter lights – solid letters filled with individual bulbs.
With versions popping up all over the internet and in homeware shops there are a lot to choose from, sometimes being quite pricey. Today we show you  how to make your own personaliased marquee lights at a fraction of the cost.

For the best effect and to create a sturdy light you will need to cut your letters or symbols out of wood [ jigsaw needed ]. Alternatively you can get hold of pre-cut versions online from sites including Amazon and Hobby Craft [ from £2 ].
