As soon as I saw all_scan_everything's "Strawberry Frosted Pop Tart," I knew instantly I needed to turn it into a light switch cover! https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3515357

I printed it in blue only because that's the filament that was loaded in my printer. Also, the photos show my first draft, printed at 0.3 mm resolution using a 0.6 mm nozzle. I didn't expect the print to work, and I certainly didn't expect the paint job to turn out as well as it did. So I kept it. It looks smoother if I take off my glasses and stand at arm's length!

The uploaded .gcode is at 0.2 mm resolution for a 0.4 mm nozzle. I haven't tried printing this yet, but I assume it will be smoother. Since painting is required, a little sanding might improve the final appearance.
