DIY Ornament Kit - 7cm Diameter

Have you put up with mainstream, uninspiring, low-tech tree ornaments for too long? This season why not deck the halls with codes of holly?

This DIY Ornament Kit is just the right size (7 cm diameter) for a micro:bit, a 2xAAA battery pack, and however you'd like to dress up your ornament! Your local hobby shop fluff puff balls and other materials will diffuse those on-board LEDs nicely.

You can easily see the LED grid on your micro:bit and the onboard motion and temperature sensors work just fine. For capacitive touch you can use some conductive tape and attach it to the inner surface to create a capacitive touch pad. Since you can't press the buttons easily, try using the accelerometer to detect when the ball is shaken to make it do stuff!

Note: Does not come with a micro:bit or battery pack, so pick one up separately to go along!
