A 7 cm diameter clear ornament shell designed to house a micro:bit and battery pack for creating interactive, programmable decorations. Perfect for holiday ornaments, classroom projects, or creative coding activities — use the micro:bit's LED display, motion sensors, and temperature sensor to bring your ornament to life.
Add craft materials like puff balls to diffuse the LEDs, or use conductive tape on the inner surface to create capacitive touch pads. Since the buttons aren't easily accessible inside the ornament, use the accelerometer to detect shaking for interactive effects.

- 7 cm Diameter – Fits a micro:bit and 2×AAA battery pack
- Clear Shell – LED display visible through the ornament
- Sensor Compatible – Motion, temperature, and capacitive touch all work inside
- DIY Friendly – Decorate with craft materials for a personalised look

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- LED
- A light-emitting diode (LED) is a small electronic component that emits light when current flows through it in the correct direction. Because it only conducts one way, its polarity matters, and a through-hole LED must be soldered the correct way around to light up.
