A Christmas Hat

A short post wherein I introduce a new project: The Christmas Hat

Can't Get Enough

I know what you're thinking. Isn't one light-up piece of wearable headgear enough? To which I passionately answer: No! It isn't! One must have light-up hats for all seasons and occasions! But seriously, this hat will be amazing.

 

What's the Idea?

The working title for this electronic Christmas confection is the "Hot and Cold Christmas Cloche." A temperature sensor on the hat will trigger its light-up bits to change color depending on whether it is hot or cold. Ideally, the hat will be an icy blue when it's outside and a festive red and green when it's inside.

I should get my hat base and the rest of my components in the next few days. Look forward to a full run-down of the parts list nest week.
