The holidays are upon us, and while you may have decorated outside, your indoor space will also need some sprucing up. Whether for yourself, family, or friends, these unique Tindie items could be great for under, on, or as the tree itself!
Christmas 3 PCB
If you’re thinking that “Christmas 3” sounds a lot like “Christmas tree,” then you wouldn’t be far off from Brian Lough’s PCB. It’s the shape of a tree, and features reverse-mounted LEDs that cleverly diffuse through the PCB itself.
MP3 PCB Tree in Transparent Case
If you like your PCB trees to be “look but don’t touch,” this device could be a good option. It features a pair of PCBs that slide together for a 3D effect, and can play your favorite tunes as its lights flash away.
Electric Menorah Model II
As this device’s description puts it, “How would the story of Hanukkah have gone down if the Israelites had LEDs?” As a possible answer to that question, this PCB menorah uses LEDs, driven by a pair of shift registers and an ATtiny84A processor, flickering as if they were actual candles.
LED Snowman Kit
What could be better than a PCB snowman for the cold winter months? This PCB kit features an orange LED nose, along with flashing RGB LEDs on its chest. It would be great for a necklace, decoration, or as an introduction to soldering.
Super Snowflake
Before snow can be formed into snowballs, snowmen, and snow angels, it first must take the form of countless flakes. You can bring a flake indoors with this beautiful PCB snowflake ornament. It’s available fully or partially assembled, and shines beautiful white patterns as shown in its intro video.
