About this Event

Join us to design, fold, and light up your own DIY paper bow tie using the power of paper circuitry!

Unfold the magic of science and style! Join us for a hands-on “maker” session where we turn ordinary paper into extraordinary wearable tech. Whether you’re a crafting pro or a tech enthusiast, you’ll learn the basics of paper circuits—using cardstock, LEDs, and coin cell batteries to make your very own DIY Glow Bow tie.

  1. Create: Design a custom bow tie that reflects your style.
  2. Connect: Master the flow of electricity with simple, solder-free circuitry.
  3. Shine: Walk away with a piece of wearable art that actually lights up!

No prior engineering experience required—just bring your curiosity and get ready to glow!

 

Materials Provided: “We provide the LEDs, tape, and paper—you bring the creativity!”

Cost: (Free Registration Required)
