Asian style motion sensored night light

Asian style motion sensored night light
Pretty simple nightlight that turns on when you wave your hand over it.


Matboard
Needle and Thread
Cloth or Paper(I like the texture of cloth, but I suppose paper would help diffuse the light more)
Scissors
Glue
Pencil and Ruler
Dremel or hole puncher
Motion sensored light(3-4 USD, by the touch light thingies)
X-acto or matboard cutter


I did this like a year ago so I don't know the exact time, probably around 2 hours tops

Cost is about 7 dollars. Matboard and the light

Step 1Decide and cut the shape

Decide and cut the shape
Decide what you want your lampshade to look like, measure, make four of them, three is okay but that would mean less space inside(the light wouldn't be as diffused). Cut some windows, a matboard cutter is really nice to have. I cut pieces on the bottom to give it feet, so theres a top and bottom.
