ABSTRACT:
An illuminated display apparatus includes embossed or quilted indicia artistic and pleasing to small children applied to a generally flat surface that is provided with a plurality of apertures disposed at locations relating to the indicia placed thereon and includes illumination devices extending through the plurality of apertures. A solid state switching device applies electrical power to the illumination devices to energize them. Electrical conductors interconnect the source of electrical energy, the switching device, and the illumination devices, all of which are embedded in a soft sponge-like material sandwiched between a backing material cooperating with the flat surface, sandwiching the electrical components therebetween. The illumination devices may be affixed to a hard frame (valance) or curtain rod for display or may be left unframed where it can function as an illuminated flag, blanket, or wall hanging.
