While it’s true I am somewhat of a DIY (that’s do-it-yourself for any newbies out there) groupie and spend many hours a week perusing the internet for new projects, my skills do not quite reflect this obsession. Thankfully this project from Jessica at How About Orange is simultaneously easy-to-make, useful and completely adorable!

1. Gather paint chips (easy to get from your local hardware store) in colors you love.
2. Trim them to a size that you like. Use a corner rounder if you like the look here.
3. Paste two together back to back with a non-toxic glue.
4. Using a hole punch, punch hole and tie string or ribbon through.

That'd be rather complicated. You'd need a component that didn't spin with the yo-yo if you wanted to generate that energy with induction. Also, any energy you get from the spinning of the yoyo reduces the spin time.
