Materials and Tools
Let's gather up the materials we'll need to put together this project:
If you don't like the look of this particular silk flower, you can also craft your own by gluing a 5mm common cathode LED into a silk flower of your choice. Check out our wishlist for the DIY flower version.
We'll be soldering for part of this project, so you'll need a soldering station/setup. Here's our suggestion if you don't have one:
Additional Materials:
- Heat shrink (or some kind of insulator such as electrical tape) in red, green, blue, and black or a color than can be easily labeled/marked on
- Felt or sturdy fabric ~2"x4" to sew electronics to
- Decorative elastic or ribbon, cut to wrist size
- Hot glue gun (and glue)
- Needle nose pliers
- Scissors
- Additional decorative accents - smaller fake flowers, ribbon, etc to hide battery holder and add finishing touches to corsage
