Sticky Light Table

 
The other night L was playing with our sticky wall and E was playing with the light table. Then I thought how fun would it be to make a sticky light table. Here's how I set it up.

I put some fabric down and laid a strand of LED Christmas lights.
 Place a under the bed storage box on top.
 Place contact paper on top sticky side up.
 Remove the backing and tape it down.

 We collected a tray of items to play with: straws, pipe cleaners, beads, Popsicle sticks, glass globs, etc.




E really liked how the items would stay in place instead of sliding around but could still be repositioned.
