This week @adafruit we’re working on a new project featuring 3D printed suncatchers to emulate a stained glass effect. This week’s time lapse features a mechanical blooming rose.

Make your outfit shine with this customizable LED amulet. It packs a whopping 64 LEDs into a tiny space so you can go crazy with animations and effects, match any outfit, and twinkle like the star you are.

This is a fairly easy project that requires a little tight soldering, but no coding. The free, open-source WLED software does all the heavy lifting for you, and offers dozens of animations and color palettes to choose from, using a smart phone interface over your local WiFi network.

My enclosure is sculpted from low-temperature thermoplastic, giving a fun organic look to the necklace. The electronics could also easily be made into a hat topper or brooch. This little piece of sparkle is versatile and small enough to use just about anywhere you need some light and color.

Build a fun and playful 3D printed MP3 player with CircuitPython and an RP2040 PropMaker Feather! It's a boombox for young makers, but with a twist: use a color sensor to detect a LEGO DUPLO brick and play a song, sound effect, or audio clip. Each colored brick plays a different audio file.
