Assembly of LED Strip
To make this night lamp colorful, we used an RGB LED strip.You can buy this online as per your requirements.
Now drill a hole for the 12-volt power supply pin to connect with the 12-volt adapter. Then, using the cutter, cut one cardboard cylinder to a length of 25 cm.Then, using a glue gun, adhere the LED strip to the cardboard cylinder.After the glue has cooled, insert a 12 volt pin through the plastic case hole.Also, centre the led strip cylinder in the hollow part of the night lamp case.
After that, connect the male pin of the 12-volt adapter to the female pin of the night light.

Assembly of Hanging Lamp
In this night lamp, we use a vintage filament Edison bulb, which gives off warm yellow light. First of all, pass the cable from the cap and connect the lamp holder as shown in the picture. Then connect the Edison bulb and test the lamp's operation. Remove the lamp and pass holder from the plastic case. Stick the bulb holder together using a glue gun and reconnect the vintage filament Edison bulb.
