It’s that wonderful time of year when everything feels bright, festive, and full of magic! For me, this season is all about family — and yes, presents too! 😊 Parents are busy wrapping gifts, little ones are on their very best behavior hoping Santa delivers, and everyone is looking forward to cozy get-togethers filled with good food, laughter, and cherished memories.
I wanted to design something that would add a little festive cheer to the home, was safe for little ones, and was enjoyable to make. We switched to LED candles after our baby arrived and while they’re practical, they always felt like they were missing a little something on their own. So I decided to make some cozies in classic Christmas colors to dress them up — and one thing led to another, which is how the extended lantern pattern came to life!
Fun fact: The name Kandeel means ‘lantern’ in Hindi.
