DIY Paper Craft Glowing Crystal Gems Tutorial @adafruit #adafruit #stevenuniverse
Crystal Gems will always save the day!
Create a stunning paper craft crystal from laminated cellophane wrap. Add NeoPixels and watch it sparkle!
We’ve included two different build sizes in this tutorial — one crystal large enough to house a Circuit Playground Express, and one with a single NeoPixel illuminating the crystal. This project can be run from a battery for cosplay applications (the crystal on Gandalf’s staff perhaps?) or plugged in to the wall via USB for a more permanent installation.
We’ve also included a Steven Universe Warp-Pad 3D printable base, so your Crystal Gems can be displayed in style. The possibilities are endless!
Check out the full guide!
