Change up the aesthetics of your blink and bling with these square light emitting diodes. They’re great for weaving!     Two of the leads will be positive and two negative. You’ll be able to identify this by looking at the top of the LED. Mark the positive terminals with a dab of paint or a magic marker to help […]

  Placement of the correct resistor can be crucial!     Know the resistor’s value by using a table such as found on Digikey’s website or download a handy app such as Resistor Color Code to your phone.  

  Push Button Switches from Adafruit. Add some color to your circuits!    

At the beginning of a project I take a few moments to mark the polarity of my LED’s using nail polish, magic marker, or seed beads and then bending the metal lead into a specific shape. This helps my accuracy when sewing the LED’s into my eTextiles. I encourage you to take a few moments to do this as it […]
