Overview

The nights are getting longer and that's a bummer, but that also means that there's more reason to play with LEDs and other things that light up! To celebrate the fun of playing with light we've teamed up with RadioShack for our Make It Glow Contest!

The rule for the contest is simple: any new Instructable that provides light can be entered. That can mean a fancy LED array or even a candle. If it lights up the darkness it should be submitted.

So get going and start seeing what you can do to light things up. We can't wait to see what it is.

Multiple entries are accepted, but each entrant can only win one prize. Contest is open to entries from US, Canada [excluding Quebec], UK, China, Belgium, the Netherlands, Australia,  Colombia, Germany, Switzerland, Norway, India, and Denmark<. Contest closes for entries at 11:59pm PT, January 7, 2013.

The winner(s) will be solely responsible for complying with any and all applicable statutes, laws (including, without limitation, common law, if applicable), rules and regulations and for bearing any personal income tax, VAT, withholding taxes, customs duties, or other taxes, fees, insurance, surcharges or other costs relating to receiving, claiming or collecting any prize.

The Make It Glow is closed.
