    Print the required parts

    Print the required parts. I used white PLA for all 3 components, but you could use different colors. If you don't plan to paint anything, I would suggest using a red PLA for the cap, white for the stalk and underside. The thin underside transmits light well, but you could experiment with a more translucent material.

    The parts can be downloaded from Thangs: https://thangs.com/designer/Nianzu/3d-model/Mushroom%20Lamp-1099087

    Post process the prints (optional)

    I alternated between sanding and applying sand-able spray paint until the desired smoothness was achieved for both the stalk and the cap. The underside should not be processed because its pretty delicate at this stage. I then spray painted the cap with glossy red spray paint, and speckled it with white acrylic paint by flicking a paintbrush at it. The stalk was spray painted with glossy white, and both were then clear-coated.

    Assemble the top

    Install the LEDs of your choice. I used double-sided tape to attach them to the cap. Then epoxy the underside to the top of the cap. I used 2 part epoxy to glue everything together in this project.
