Flame Effect Costume/Girl on Fire Dress #WearableWednesday

It is challenging to capture the randomness and nuance of a flame with LED’s. This project from nancianna on Instructables does a good job recreating fire-light with the help of a Flora and the Adafruit Learning System.

There are a lot of examples of fire effects out there, but none I found that were both A) realistic enough and B) appropriate for a mobile costume. So after a lot of research, I came up with this method.
