Self-illuminating fabricated solid material objects

Self-illuminating fabricated solids (10): pavers, driveway stones, building blocks (12), or statuary (60), having optical fibers (20) positioned within a receptacle (22) with one end of the fibers visually terminating at predetermined positions on the object's surface (14). Furthermore, the receptacle (22) is adapted to reversibly receive, or alternatively to be operatively related to, a reversibly powered light source (40) to provide for light that travels from the source (40) through the fibers (20) to the surface (14) of the fabricated object providing for self-illuminating seasonal designs (24,24a,24b), informational text, or advertising. A plurality of designs in various colors may exist on a single object. These durable objects are long lasting as surface exposed fibers (20) wear with the surface (14) of the object and worn-out light sources (40) are easily and rapidly replaced. For extensive displays, a fiber optic cable may be utilized to transmit light from a single or a plurality of remote light sources to one or a plurality of fabricated solid objects.
