LED lights for kid's room

Is there a particular pattern of the lights she's going for or does she just want them around the ceiling?

Could you get some strips of trim, and glue the lights to that? Then tack the trim along ceiling edge? At least that way you can easily remove the lights without a bunch of adhesive on your walls.

Attach the strips under the bed, to the back of the nightstand, dresser, etc... to hide them

Exactly, they don't have to be exposed and "trashy". If you get creative I'm sure you can find ways to see the light without seeing the lights.

There is also the aluminum track with diffuse covers which can sort of blend/meld with existing trim.

You can also get some LED wall panels that may not look too bad:

This.

If you go with the diffusers you have to be mindful of the led density, how deep is the aluminum channel and how thick is the diffuser if you want it to look like a neon strip and not a bunch of milky white dots.

They have the all-in-one kits with power, controller, and remote but they are a low-density strip and won't do well in a diffuser setup.

I had read BTF lighting was a good brand of strips. I tried their 144led per meter strips but they only have them in 1m lengths and I wanted 3 for my AV rack. There is another website with a 5m roll if you want that dense of a strand but you will need a big power supply for it. You also need a controller and they have them with remotes and apps

If you are looking to do long runs of strips I would also look at 12v at least if not 24v. 5v strips will get dim towards the end of the strip and you might have to inject power along the way.

Or you can look for LED panels like the above. You can also add some around the back of pictures or TVs if they have one.

Hue is pricy but works well if you don't need all the different lighting effects the other things have.

Also, look at govee on amazon they are like a cheap hue and may have some good-looking options for you. They even have their own panels LED Pannels

It might be enough if you have the bulbs in the lamps and ceiling and maybe some strips under the bed and behind the dresser. Sell it as a more complete cover of color changing vs just a strip.

7 Common LED Strip FAILS and How To Avoid Them

We have these and love them.
They also can be set to “ambient sounds” so I have them all over the front yard and play Christmas music next to them from a Bluetooth speaker. They flash and change to the music. Pretty awesome.

My kids put them on the bottom of his bed. It’s not trashy because you can’t see them unless they’re on. I hate being trashy. For my room, I put them around the mirror hanging over the bed.
