Paper Electronics

After Natalie Freed visited HeatSync Labs and shared paper electronics I've been hosting similar paper electronics events. This page covers the basics. Some photos, where you can get supplies, links to creative things you can do. Also for a lot more links about this type of thing this wiki page has more stuff and Sparkfun covers the topic well also here.

Just a few photos;
