Need help diagramming a project

I'm building a handrail to my Star Wars themed theater, and I'm making it out of frosted acrylic tubing with LED lights inside (like two lightsabers touching end to end).

I'm planning to install 3-way switches into the hilts of each of the sabers, which will run a single outlet where the LED lights will be plugged in.

So the thought is you can flip on the saber at the top of the stairs, then flip it off at the bottom with the other switch.

I have the concept of how to wire a 3-way switch, but I'm struggling with making sure I'm mapping it appropriately to power an outlet.

Anyone able to help me visualize this? Or- am I over-engineering this with running everything to an outlet? It seemed to be the simplest solution considering the DC to AC issue with standard LED lights.
