It can be a night light it can be a light it can be anything (that glows). I prefer gold for the legs and white for the body. Use glue on this print. Warning!!!!! look in the instructions for assembling the egg this is MANDATORY!!!!!!!!!
This idea was from Paige Russel in Tinkercad University+ "LED night light".

How to assemble
You'll need some super glue or e6000 adhesive and a sharp blade (exacto knife or box cutter) for this step. First you take the egg bottom/holder (aka F93EPATJ80GQ9UO.stl) you CAREFULLY, use a sharp blade to clean out any material that is keeping the holes on the egg bottom from a perfect circle. Try putting the legs in the holes. If they don't fit, keep using the blade to remove a little material at a time until they do. Ask a parent or teacher for help if you aren't comfortable using a blade. The GLOW CUTOUT was designed to provide a tight press fit for the GLOW holder. Repeat this process until the egg bottom/holder goes in and holds in place, but is easy to remove.
Leave the two egg parts together.
Add a small amount of glue/adhesive to each leg hole on the egg bottom. For this application, it's important that the egg top/shade be easy to take off and put back on, so we'll need to shave down the CUTOUT hole a bit.
Very carefully, use a sharp blade to remove a small amount of material all around the opening in the egg top. Repeat this process until the egg bottom/holder goes in and holds in place, but is easy to remove. Leave the two egg parts together.
Add a small amount of glue/adhesive to each leg hole on the egg bottom. Press the legs into place. Quickly, before the glue dries, place the completed shape on the table and check that the alignment of the legs is correct from all angles.
Let the glue dry. Then remove the now glued leg' egg combo.
Place the coin cell battery in the holder with the POSITIVE (+) side of the battery facing the same way as the '+' sign on the holder. Use your wire cutters to trim about 1/2" off of each LED pin, making sure to keep the length differences.
NOTE: The longer pin is POSITIVE (+), the shorter one NEGATIVE (-) and the difference in pin lengths is how you know which is which. insert the LED into the holder, with the longer POSITIVE (+) pin going in the side of the holder with the '+'. Insert the LED into the holder, with the longer POSITIVE (+) pin going in the side of the holder with the '+'. If you've done it right the LED should light up!
The only thing left to do is put the top/shade on.
