Abstract
A light-reactive gifting system includes, in one embodiment, an illumination device adapted to emit UV light, an ornamental attachment attached to or that forms at least a portion of the flat top of the illumination device, paper that includes a first light-reactive component that reacts to the UV light and is characterized by having a first visual appearance when not reflecting the UV light and a second visual appearance when reflecting the UV light, and an attachment mechanism that is useable to attach the illumination device to the paper thereby enabling the UV light to be cast in the direction of the paper and causing each of the first and second visual appearances based on activating or deactivating the UV LEDs.
