Add hundreds of lights to your home or yard with these fantastic Seed Pixel Nets. Adafruit carries them in a variety of sizes, from 1x1m to 1x6m large, and they are chainable and expandable so no vision is too big.
These nets use 12v power, which can be easily handled by the Sparkle Motion microcontroller. It has 4 powered LED outputs, a power converter so you can run 12v or 5v lights, and an onboard microphone, which makes sound-reactive projects a snap. 
The setup is fairly easy, with no soldering required (though adding connectors can make your life easier). That gives you time to focus on making beautiful sequences and enjoying your pretty lights.
