No problem. Just remember it gets addictive. I stick led strips and strings in a ton of stuff. My other half bought a wire work Christmas deer that had old incandescent lights in it and I threw some RGB string lights with WLED. She bought a metal star with little cutouts in it and I mounted it to a board and stuck some RGB's in it as well. Took a piece of scrap OSB and printed Merry Christmas off in big letters then drilled holes at regular intervals to put a bunch of the individual pixels from a string of RGB's into as well.
My intention is to eventually put strips in nearly every room in the house and install them outside as well. That way when I want a different color than white I can just change it with the LED's.
I'm planning to create a huge Christmas display that can play short videos and graphics on to setup where our city does a display each year. And at some point I'm going to pitch them letting me upgrade the Christmas decorations with WLED and RGB strings. Then with a couple AP's strategically placed in can setup a synchronized light show.
Like I said WLED is amazing.
