Marble Pyramid
Night Light

The Marble Pyramid Night Lite was designed for ages 8 through adult.  It is a quality American designed and manufactured kit.  The finished night light will delight all who see it.  Our kits are manufactured with American-made "cats-eye" marbles which are superior to anything else on the market in uniformity of size, color intensity and clarity of the crystal-clear part of the marble.

A fun family project.  When completed, it makes a lasting, memorable gift.

The boxed kit comes with the following:

American-made furniture grade, precut and predrilled 1/2" plywood base and related parts.

165 beautiful cats-eye marbles.

A specially formed tray for accurate marble assembly.

The light socket, cord and switch assembly (UL approved).

A very detailed instruction booklet (age-appropriate) with full-color assembly photographs..

Two small sheets of sandpaper.

We also include the light bulb!

Instructions

The booklet includes complete instructions on how to stain the finished base and related parts as well as how to easily assemble the marble sides using only white glue and the "tray" provided.

We offer a choice of seven different, beautiful, color selections of marbles plus one kit that contains a variety of colors, and one with a flower on each side (we include a separate instruction sheet for this and you must specifically ask for the flower pyramid design).

Children of all ages truly enjoy building this project.  It's not difficult for kids to understand the construction of the pyramid when using our booklet and color photo sheet. 

In Case Of Error

If the pyramid were constructed incorrectly (the tray was designed to prevent this), the marbles can be soaked in hot water, the white glue washed off and assembly can begin again! 

Learning Advantages

• The builder can expect to learn very basic measuring, how to work with wood and make their project look like a beautiful piece of furniture. 
   
• The builder will see that by following the basic instructions they will quickly produce something they can be proud to show friends and family.
   
• The finished night light makes a wonderful gift from the builder.
   
• The completed project is something that can survive for generations with very little care.  I should know... my grandfather built the first one over 40 years ago.  Every time I look at the one my grandfather gave me... I think warmly of him.  It looks and works as good now as it did then.

Consider for a moment that you can have something that is fun and easy to build (also makes a great family or class project), is something the builder will take very much pride in show to everyone, is not something will get "tossed out" next month, and is a project that will actually last for generations!
