Happy Christmas, Sparklers! Lisabeth here with a special Christmas wish for you all... 💌✨

This Christmas, I wish you aliveness. I wish you the room to enjoy your sweet, precious, messy life — just as it is. I wish you the courage to give yourself permission to express your heart and to choose what feels good for you and your people. And I wish the entire planet peace.

The Sparkle Stories team and I are deeply grateful for you!

With great love,
Lisabeth

It's Christmas Eve! Have you prepared your cookies for Santa yet!? If not, you can whip up a batch of these delicious Glass Star Cookies inspired by The Junkyard Tales story, "Traditions"! 🍪✨

Made with a regular sugar cookie dough with the addition of a candy center, these are delicious to eat, but would also be lovely hung in a window to catch the winter light! Learn the full recipe here: https://www.sparklestories.com/blog/post/sparkle-kitchen-glass-star-cookies/

With Christmas just two days away, we wanted to feature one of our favorite Christmas collections: Martin & Sylvia's Twelve Days of Christmas! 🎄🎧

The twelve stories follow the Tully family - along with other founding members of Tullyport, colonial town on the Coast of Maine - as they create traditions and celebrations that are unique, delightful and rich with community connection. These stories inspire Martin and Sylvia’s family, along with the neighbors and friends they invite, to create a wonderful Christmastide festival together.

Join in their Christmastide festivities with Martin & Sylvia by checking out all twelve stories here: https://www.sparklestories.com/collection/martin-and-sylvias-twelve-days-of-christmas/

Happy Winter Solstice, Sparklers! ☀️❄️

Nature's rhythms can offer us a powerful map. The lengthening nights can pull us into more restful rhythms. The returning light offers inspiration and vision. Wherever you live, these seasonal transitions can be turned into meaningful celebrations, whether you plant the seeds into a new year with pen and paper, family and friends, or you light candles and sing songs from your favorite religious or spiritual tradition, marking the transition into longer days.

We have a full Storybox Playlist that kindles the spirit of the winter solstice for your listening pleasure here: https://www.sparklestories.com/blog/post/storybox-playlist-stories-of-the-winter-solstice/ as we usher in these sunnier days together.

As we approach the Winter Solstice this Sunday, consider creating a Winter Spiral—a beautiful tradition of walking inward during the darkest days to kindle your inner light. 🌀 ✨

Using simple materials like stones, branches, or candles, you can craft a spiral path that invites quiet reflection, gratitude, and connection with loved ones.

Whether celebrating the solstice, Advent, or simply the season itself, this gentle ritual reminds us to find warmth and light within. Visit our blog post here: https://www.sparklestories.com/blog/post/a-winter-spiral/ for our full how-to guide to create your own Winter Spiral!

Inspired by the At Home with Martin & Sylvia story “The Shortest Day,” where Momma suggests they spend more time outside with the sun. They go sledding, build fairy houses, and even build a bonfire — and, as we all know, no bonfire is complete without s'mores! 🔥🪵

Enter our extra festive Solstice Bonfire S'Mores — with a special holiday twist — subbing traditional graham crackers for gingerbread cookies and the usual plain chocolate for seasonal peppermint bark! YUM!

Learn the whole recipe here https://www.sparklestories.com/blog/post/sparkle-kitchen-solstice-bonfire-smores/ and Happy Winter Solstice Week, Sparklers! The sun is coming!

Brighten your tree with a handmade Solstice Sun Topper ☀️✨

Celebrating the shortest day of the year with this vibrant tradition inspired by the At Home with Martin & Sylvia story: "The Shortest Day" 🌞 Just like Martin & Sylvia chasing sunlight through winter play, we're inviting warmth into our homes—one golden felt ray at a time.

Here at Sparkle HQ, this sun doesn't go up until Solstice Eve. First the Yule log, then the topper, then we light the tree... all in the dark for that extra magic. Visit the blog post here to see how easy it is to make your own: https://www.sparklestories.com/blog/post/sparkle-craft-solstice-sun-tree-topper/ All you need: wool felt in sunny yellows, a glue gun, and a little winter crafting time magic! ✨

Who else celebrates the return of the light? 🕯️
