Hexagon Neopixel/LED Nanoleafs (No Screws or Supports Needed!)

LEDs or Neopixels can be glued in either horizontally or vertically. I put 2 LED slots and tons of mounting holes for easy assembly and customization. I used Neopixels, an Attiny85, a micro USB cable, and a push button. The code I used to program the ATTINY85 is at the bottom.

Alternatively you can purchase a WS2812B controller (ONLY USE A POWER SUPPLY YOUR LIGHTS ARE RATED FOR!!!)

Simply print out your hexagons and some connectors. Assemble into desired shape then cover the extra slots with the side cover. String through your LED strip, mount it to the wall with screws or adhesive, add your lens, plug in the power and done!

The code I use is ArduinoIDE and the Adafruit libraries https://www.adafruit.com/
