What is coming
Three kinds of lamp
Hang it on the wall, stand it on a shelf, or print a table lamp whose lid is your picture.
Your picture, text or SVG
Detail inside an SVG is kept, and any part that would float is tied back so the print is one piece.
Shadow or glow
Choose a dark picture in a bright circle, or a bright picture on a dark wall.
Works with the light you have
Presets for an LED tea light, an LED pillar candle, a small USB light, an LED strip and a puck light — or enter your own size.
See it on the wall first
A preview shows how big the shadow will be and how soft its edges are before you print.

Frequently asked questions
When will shadow lamps be available?
We have not set a date yet. Sign up free and you will see it in DesignerX as soon as it opens.
Which lights will it work with?
Battery LED tea lights and pillar candles, small USB lights, LED strips and puck lights. Use battery-powered LEDs only — a real flame inside a plastic lamp is a fire risk.
How sharp will the shadow be?
A small light gives a sharper shadow, and the further the picture is from the wall the bigger and softer it gets. The preview shows both.
Can I get one made now?
