You can make a crown of light for prom or your birthday this year! A few free-wired NeoPixels make you the cyber-pageant queen.
For this project you will need:
- Gemma M0 or GEMMA v2 wearable microcontroller (or build on the GEMMA Starter Pack)
- seven sewable NeoPixels (or any combination of pixels, NeoPixel rings, or high-density NeoPixel strip) Use "RGB" NeoPixel rings, not "RGBW" type!
- 2x2032 coin cell battery holder and batteries or rechargeable lipoly battery
- zip ties & hot glue
- 3D printed band, crown, or recycled stiff headband
- solid core hookup wire
- sharp wire strippers
- sharp flush snips

This guide was written for the Gemma v2 board, but can be done with either the v2 or Gemma M0. We recommend the Gemma M0 as it is easier to use and is more compatible with modern computers!
Before you get started, follow the Gemma M0 guide or the Classic Introducing GEMMA guide
