Do it yourself lit front board (mini façade)

I have been hinting of an inexpensive way to add light to a façade. With this method you will get a more even light (without hot spots) and have a bit more control of how the light interacts.
The parts list is small
A roll or more of rgb strip led lights
A controller for the strip
A power supply
Corrugated plastic
Some white laminated wood cut to size.
Some finishing trim to make the frame for the leds and to put the corrugated plastic
Staples and staple gun and some Velcro
The videos will explain how its put together.
Thanks for watching and reading.

Led strips and controllers are all over ebay. The plastic can be bought at the hardware store.

It comes with an ir remote already but you can buy a dmx or sound activated controller for the led strips.
Here is a complete kit (http://www.ebay.ca/itm/5M-RGB-SMD-5050-30Leds-M-Waterproof-Led-Strip-Light-White-Music-Controller-Power-/150829553581?pt=US_String_Lights_Fairy_Lights&hash=item231e2457ad) with a 5 meter strip. Here is a dmx controller (http://www.ebay.ca/itm/DMX-512-Decorder-LED-Controller-DC-12V-24V-3CH-For-3528-5050-RGB-LED-Strip-Light-/380562123402?pt=US_Lighting_Parts_and_Accessories&hash=item589b452a8a).
