Hi Guys!
Apologies for the late blog entry.
Below are my three proposals for my ioT/smart object project.
Below is evidence that my Arduino HUZZAH is speaking with the internet although when I tried to add my own website… I can’t tell if it actually worked…? I was concerned by the wording “connection failed. TBD I suppose.

Great brainstorm, Stephanie! Your second and third sketches remind me of the functionality of this project: https://www.instructables.com/id/Internet-Valentine/ (the abstract code for which is covered in IoT class lesson 6), but with a motion/touch sensor as the input. All your ideas are feasible for the scope of the project and could be based on sample code we’ve been building on in class. For a motion sensor that knows when there’s motion in a room, try the PIR motion sensor: https://www.adafruit.com/product/189 (I’m pretty sure they also have them on amazon and at Tinkersphere). For touch sensing, try something like this: https://www.adafruit.com/product/1374 with either the contact pad or some copper tape extending to just under the surface of the object.
