Function and form merge to deliver these illuminating lights, which give nurseries and children’s rooms a personal touch, and some night time ambience.

My children have never needed the comfort of a nursery night light, but I have made lighting a feature in their rooms. I love the way lighting can completely change the mood or feel of a space, particularly one that requires a calming influence. The Mylight is rather special in that it can set the tone of a room, both through its function as a comforting glow in the darkness, and as a decor piece.

Mylight night lights are handmade by a family-owned business in Adelaide. The interior light is an energy-efficient LED strip, which casts just the right amount of light to suit a child’s room as a night-time fixture.

The lights can be personalised in a myriad of ways, from the box surface to the light type. The box is constructed from aluminium composite and the personalised cut-out via a router. The colours range from bold and bright to metallic. There’s also a range of fonts and images to choose from.

The internal light can also be personalised – from either a warm white, to a rainbow of colours, controlled by a remote.

The Mylight is priced from $129.95, depending on the box surface and light type chosen. You can have a go at creating a virtual version of your light at Mylight before ordering.
