Day/Time: Sunday, April 23 2:00 PM (60 minutes)

Location: Fiesta Hall

The Wearable Light Bracelet workshop will show you how you can make the same LED bracelet pictured below. You'll be given a choice of three different leather and ultra-suede (for those opposed to wearing leather) pieces for the top of the bracelet. There will also be a number of fabric scraps to choose from for the underneath of the bracelet. An option to customize the top leather piece of the bracelet will be available as well.

The main focus of workshop will be to learn how to sew the LED circuitry. Syuzi, along with her assistant, will be able to work individually which each person to help them construct the circuitry.

We will use an iron-on seam tape to piece the bracelet together. A sewing machine will be available for those willing to spend the extra time to sew the bracelet together.

This workshop will also be held on Saturday at 2:00 pm.
