December 9 | Twinkle, Twinkle

Did you build a fort fit for a gnome (or maybe even a whole gnome village)? I hope it was magical and cozy!

Today, we’re lighting things up with a handmade luminary. Start by wrapping a glass jar with heavy-duty aluminum foil, cut to fit. Lay the foil on a piece of Styrofoam and gently poke holes with a toothpick or pen to create your design - stars, swirls, gnome silhouettes, anything that sparks your imagination.

Pop a tealight inside and watch your creation glow! For extra safety (and extra ease), LED tealights work perfectly too.

We absolutely love seeing your creativity shine - so please share your luminary masterpieces on Facebook or Instagram. Nothing brightens our day like your ADVENTures.

And speaking of brightening… are you getting excited to receive a letter back from your pen pal or family member? Connection is a wonderful thing! It might even inspire you to think about other special people in your life - the ones who would love a little holiday surprise.

Good news: tomorrow’s ADVENTure will help you create something very special for them… a cozy little wrapping station! Get ready - it’s going to make your gift-giving sparkle.

Twinkle, twinkle,
Gustav
