In Progress: Halloween Costume – Margarita

My costume is the embellished sunglasses which are oversized and fun. The costume is meant to be silly.

I started working on my circuit this week not realizing that I connected a lot of wires that don’t make sense to be used together like the GEMMA and the uno. After dismantling the work and going back to the basics, I realized that I bought the GEMMA with the microusb and I don’t currently have the wiring to connect the microusb to my computer so I am transitioning to connecting my wires to the uno and breadboard. I also worked on adding the beads to my sunglasses which I did do and added the strings on the sides based on Isabell’s suggestion.
