This small night light is about six inches tall. It is all cut from 1/4" thick wood. It is assembled with slot and tab joints.
You will need a light kit. These are available at most craft stores. I like the kind in the picture below with the spring clamps. The pattern is designed for this style light kit. If you buy something different you may have to modify the bottom so it will fit.
The kit in the picture is under $10 for two light kits. They include an inline switch and six-foot cord.
These kits come with a clear light bulb. I like to use white bulbs. You can find them wherever light bulbs are sold.
