A simple timer to switch on twinkle lights coiled up inside a heavy, green glass jar provides a gentle glow, casting subtle shadows and turns a darkened room into something almost magical. Whenever I sit in this room, quietly reading in my comfy chair, sipping a hot cup of chai and I hear that click, I look up and smile. Its warmth and blush of glimmering light always makes me happy.

I love the dark lighting in this photo, and how the glass refracts the light! Looks very appropriate for the holiday season!
Thank you for your comment. It sits in my sunroom year round. But will go well with my holiday decorating!
Hey Julie .. loving your green glass jar. Special … 🙂 Click
What a lovely, magical idea! I’m not much for holiday decorating since the family has grown. This might just find its way onto my list of “must-haves”!!
What’s even better — this is something I have on display year round. Not just for the holidays!
Thanks for your comment Martha! 🙂
