Abstract

The invention includes an apparatus for illuminating the interior of a fashion accessory and a method for assembling the same. An illumination device may include a dual illumination source, a power source, and a switch electrically coupled to one another. The dual illumination source may be a pair of electric luminescent wires affixed to the interior of the fashion accessory. The switch may cause the dual illumination source to illuminate when the fashion accessory is opened and to turn off when the fashion accessory is closed. Various elements of the illumination device may be obscured from view by including the same behind an interior lining of the fashion accessory, and the illumination source may be selected from any suitable color so as to provide illumination of a desired color. Additionally, the power source may be rechargeable, and may be configured to power additional electronic devices.
