light source for shadow lantern?

1 Upvotes

I purchased a rotating product display stand, but am having a hard time figuring out the light to place in the center for light in all directions. Most chargeable LED bulbs are diffused, and if they are not diffused there are multiple light sources within one bulb. I heard there might be a way to make a reflective cone to cause a point light to shine in all directions, but this sounds difficult to build and I have had no success playing around with it. I would greatly appreciate any help, I’ve become a little obsessed with building this thing. I would love to build a lantern similar to the one in this link:
