Color Changing LED Ring - Help

Hello, I've searched most of the LED Instructables section looking for something I'd like to make. I'm just looking into making something very basic.

Simply put, I'm looking to build a round "coaster" type object. I'd like it to have a few coloured LED's that are in a circular shape but will fade in/out and mix colours together.

Picture having this under a glass object and it's purpose is to light up the object with different colour patterns and such just for looks.

If anyone could help me out with this, it would greatly be appreciated.

I'm just starting to get into LED things. I can wire the LED's to all be on, but that's not what I want.

Have a look at this project.

All you need to do is add more LEDs and lay them down flat.

Try changing your search text - I searched for colour change LED.

(You did see the search box at the top-right corner of the page...?)
