Halloween is right around the corner, and I've been brainstorming ideas to decorate the Halloween party. Suddenly, inspiration struck! I came up with a brilliant idea - crafting Halloween silhouette lamps that will bring a unique charm to the party! These silhouette lamps not only illuminate the Halloween festivities but also create a mysterious and spooky atmosphere for the entire event. Let's get hands-on and create this stunning Halloween decoration together!

Supplies

Design Acrylic Cutting Pattern

Before diving into creating Halloween silhouette lamps, the first step is to decide on the desired silhouette patterns. It can be pumpkins, ghosts, bats, or anything else related to Halloween. The key is to ensure that the patterns have clear outlines so that they can create a crisp silhouette effect when cut and illuminated.

Here I use the AI to draw the pattern I want to make. (Acrylic cutting files can also be in CAD/CDR/DXF format)

This is the AI project file I made:

Start Acrylic Laser Cutting

I have chosen Elecrow's acrylic laser cutting service to do it, which offers acrylic cutting boards for an incredibly affordable price, as low as just $1 for 5 pieces! This service is known for its efficiency, and it boasts impressively fast shipping speed. I can confidently send them my design, knowing that they will promptly deliver the precisely cut acrylic boards to my doorstep.

Moreover, Elecrow's acrylic cutting service offers a variety of color and thickness options to choose from. To create a more chilling and haunting atmosphere for my Halloween party, I have specifically selected 2mm black acrylic.

Prepare Ambient Light Strips

Of course, ambient lighting is essential. I used LED copper wire lamps from Elecrow's website. They offer a total of 5 colors to choose from, and I selected the yellow LED lamp.

Assembling Acrylic Silhouette Lights

Once we have received the cut acrylic and LED ambient lights, we can proceed with the assembly.

(1) First, peel off the protective film from the acrylic.

(2) Then, individually thread a thin string through the holes located directly above each acrylic board. Use scissors to cut the string to the appropriate length, providing a secure attachment.

(3) Next, wrap the copper wire of the LED lights around the reserved holes on each acrylic board, connecting all the acrylic boards together.

Finally, turn on the LED lights, and your Halloween decoration is complete!

Choose a Suitable Location for Hanging
