Rose buds powered by Made With Magic

Creator:	khyizang
URL:	bringmagichome.com page
Notes:	For this hack, we start with components taken from a Glove . The board LEDs are snipped off and the leads fitted with female-female Dupont cables. Diffused RGB LEDs are inserted into the end and slipped into fabric rose buds from the Dollar Store. Florist tape conceals the wiring and the assembly is placed into a vase. Good for anytime but do think about Valentines Day!

Add a Little 'Magic' to Paper Lanterns: part 4 - MWM Octopus

Creator:	khyizang
URL:	bringmagichome.com page
Notes:	The Glove's board lends itself to replacement of the onboard LEDs with connectors that greatly expand the possibilities available for reimagining. When reconfigured, the results kind of look octopus-like. Here, a single Glove board is used to power three different lanterns resulting in a Mickey Lantern! This always gets favorable comments from viewers.
