Simple lighting

I like to make roomboxes. I will share pictures of some that I am working on. In my mind a dollhouse or roombox is never completed. There is always another touch that would make it that much better.

Some time ago I took a dollhouse wiring class. It was in Atlanta and was a good drive. I need to go back and get a refresher, which they offer for free, for my dollhouse.

 Roomboxes however, look gangly with all of that wiring. So, a solution! wireless lighting. Just stick them where you want them to go and voila! The great thing is the battery is replaceable unlike the small LED lights.

I found a company in the United Kingdom that has a wide assortment of them and I plan to order some very soon. As soon as they can be installed they will be in a post with an evaluation.

Do you know what these are?

I am a thrift shopaholic. I can't drive or walk past or even hear of one without stopping in. I am on a first name basis with most of the staff in the local ones.
Well, I was browsing in one on "senior day" when I found these. I am not sure what they are for, but I get new ideas each time I look at them. I noticed the word Mattel imprinted on them. What they were going to be or supposed to be used for is beyond me. I have several more in various shapes.
If anyone recognizes them please let me know what they were meant to be. Just curious.
 At any rate, expect them to morph into such things as tables, walls and anything else that jumps out at me. LOL
