I made 3D Printed Unicorn Horn. It looks great when going out to the party and especially in the evenings. :)

Hello everyone,
Today I'm gonna make 3D Printed Unicorn Horn. I saw and did the project in Adafruit's website about a year ago but I could not find an opportunity to share it. It looks great when going out to the party and especially in the evenings. :)
I got the horn out of the 3D printer on the project. If you do not have a 3D printer, you can make the horn yourself with the materials what you want.
Let's start !
Step 1: Materials
Step 2: Upload Code to Arduino Lilypad
You can find the code at Github or from here.
After we upload the code to Lilypad, we are done with FTDI and micro USB.
Step 3: Connection of NeoPixels
First we connect NeoPixels with each other.
Solder the GND, DIN, 5V pins of the first NeoPixel to GND, DIN and 5V of the second NeoPixel respectively.
* What we need to pay attention in this section is to solder the short cables while connecting the NeoPixels.
Step 4: NeoPixel-LilyPad Connection
Our links are ready!
While doing NeoPixel and Lilypad connection, the cable is soldered a little long so that this can easily placed in the hat.
Step 6: UniCorn Horn & Hat
You can reach 3D design of Unicorn horn by the link. Link is here.
Put a hole in the front of the hat where the NeoPixels can pass. I pulled out the seams on that part, so the hat was not damaged.
Pass the NeoPixels from here.
Place the Unicorn on the horn and sew it in the hat from the holes.
Step 7: Sewing to the Hat
Place the Lipo battery in the cavity inside the hat and sew it up as the same way.
Step 8: Wear It !
After the sewing process is finished, Lilypad and Lipo battery are fixed to the place, you can attach to your hat.
And our project is ready ! When going to the party or going out in the evening, remember to pick up your Unicorn horn hat ! :)
