The Glowing Cherry Blossoms

Although I love winter and snow, I'm already thinking about spring!  The concept of this project was to bring some "glow" to a normal painting.  Now I am in no regard a very good painter, but I recently got my hands on some conductive paint from friend here and with my love of LEDs I knew I had to get some sort of project going.

This project brings together the normal necessities of a painting and spices it up with the warm glow of a few LEDs.  The LEDs give a bit more light to your normal wall hanging. 

The abilities of conductive paint are endless and I hope to see more projects coming out in the future.

Enjoy!
