Finally, after over a month of waiting, my HC-06 bluetooth module came in from China. For once it truly was 'plug and play', using the Serial1 interface for data transmission over the tx/rx pins. There are a couple apps on the play store that allow you to use your phone as a bluetooth Serial interface and it took under 10 minutes to have my phone controlling various neopixel animations. BLE would have been even nicer, but for 4$ and almost no setup necessary, I can't complain about the HC-06.

Picture shows the BT module sandwiched between the neopixel and Flora. I didn't want to cover the 32u4 chip because of the heat issues I was still having at the time.
