What if you could save data to your earrings?
I've been working on this #Charmware MicroSD jewelry concept for a year+, and (as with the recent LED one), am SO EXCITED to finally pull together some semi-polished prototypes!!
This year, I intend to finally start selling my functional circuit board jewelry – including custom/branded options for these.
Site coming soon at https://charmware.tech 👀

New vid! #PCBs I made in 2025, part 1: LED charm ✨

Finally pulled together a prototype with this little board – one of my new #Charmware set, reviving the series of modular tech #jewelry bits I started back in 2018. Been dreaming of assembling these with elytra and bike-leather, and the day finally came... The board still needs some tweaks (smaller switch etc.), but with my fixed-up #KiCad workflow, those will be a snap. 😸
