✨ Build Your Own Magic Mirror with Secret Messages! ✨ In this video, I’ll show off my laser-etched acrylic Magic Mirror — a project powered by the Adafruit Sparkle Motion board running WLED. With a hidden motion sensor, the mirror lights up with secret glowing messages when you walk by. The secret? Behind the two-way mirror acrylic sits edge-lit etched acrylic. When the lights are off, it just looks like a mirror. But when WLED turns on the LEDs, the etched designs shine through — revealing your magic messages. 🔧 Tools & Tech Used: Laser for etching messages Two-way mirror acrylic + etched acrylic panel Adafruit Sparkle Motion board WLED (for lighting control + animations) NeoPixel strips PIR sensor for motion-controlled message display Whether you’re a maker, cosplayer, festival artist, or just love interactive art, this project is a great way to combine electronics, coding, and design into something truly magical.
