Soft Circuits: LED Feelings Pizza
Introduction
Love is sort of an unavoidable human condition, be it love for a person or a delicious snack. So here -- whether you give it to someone you love more than pizza, or keep it for yourself as a symbol of your own undying love for pizza -- are detailed instructions on how to make your own slice of LED-riddled, felt Feelings Pizza. Is it silly? Yes. Does it serve a purpose? Other than amusement, not especially. So why are we doing this? We are doing this because it's better than watching Rock of Love re-runs, and why not.
As a side bonus, this is also a good project to introduce kids to electronics, as the supplies are inexpensive, the electronic components are simple and the danger level is low.
