You all probably need more LED jewelry, because everyone does, so pick up some great pieces from @alpenglow.bsky.social at Maker Faire Bay Area.
We’ll be bringing all of these to Maker Faire Bay Area next weekend! They can be finished as a necklace, fish hook earrings, or lobster claw earrings for hooking onto hoops, your choice. #glowies #alpenglowies #ledjewelry #makerfaire #mfba2025 #makerfairebayarea
