Create a beautiful and unique fascinator hat for every occasion. A NeoPixel Jewel, Gemma M0, and tiny battery are hidden inside. The flowers and feathers glow tastefully and set off your outfit-du-jour with colors and animations you can design yourself in MakeCode.
A little hot glue, a little creativity, and you’ll be the talk of the Derby Hat Parade. Make one for everyone in your wedding party, or two for yourself and one for each of your girlfriends for a night on the town.
From Wikipedia:
A fascinator is a headpiece, a style of millinery. Fascinators were originally a form of lightweight knitted head-covering. Since the 1990s the term refers to a type of formal headwear worn as an alternative to the hat; it is usually a large decorative design attached to a band or clip, sometimes incorporating a base to resemble a hat, in which case it may be called a hatinator.
Hatinator is my new favorite word.
