Resistors don't light up LEDs. They're required in a circuit along with LEDs in order to

prevent excessive current through the LEDs when the LEDs are forward biased. The

correct resistance value depends on the supply voltage and the desired (rated) current

through the LEDs, and there's typically one resistor in series with each LED.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
