Quiet holidays and glowing jars ✨
Holiday season, Christmas time.
It’s a very big, very family-oriented period in Poland—but not really my thing. I don’t celebrate, I don’t cook, and I don’t even eat much differently than usual.
What I do enjoy, though, is the quiet.
It’s one of those rare times when everything slows down and nobody expects anything from you. No interruptions, no pressure—just space to read, watch something, play a game, or simply exist in peace.
And, of course… craft.
A simple upcycle project
Today’s project is one of those “use whatever you have” kind of creations.
I made a few winter lanterns to decorate my room, using things that were already lying around:
- empty jars
- tealights
- pieces of lace and textile flowers
- some yarn
- star-shaped pasta (because why not)
- glass buttons
- and… a slightly questionable amount of glue
It’s the kind of project where there’s no strict plan—just layering textures and seeing what happens.
The result
Soft light, a bit of sparkle, a mix of materials that somehow come together into something cozy and slightly magical.
Nothing complicated, nothing perfect—just simple decorations made from ordinary things.
I may not celebrate the holidays in the traditional way, but I do appreciate this quiet, creative version of the season.
A calm room, a small light, and something handmade—that’s more than enough ✨
