Mood lamp with a digital RGB LED Strip (WS2811/WS2812), an Arduino, acrylic glass and a few parts from the hardware store

Today, we build us an animated and programmable mood lamp that can be nicely used as a functional decoration. This tutorial is understood only as a suggestion, especially the design of course is always in the eye of the beholder.
