This project is so easy it can be done holding a baby. 😉 I have really wanted to have a focus more on gratitude and appreciating those around us this month. This is a fun idea to surprise someone who has made a difference in your life. I call it You “light” up my life.
- Black, red and green cardstock
- Double sided tape
- Scissors
- Black marker
You can literally finish this in 15 minutes or less. It could be a fun mutual or family home evening activity where you could choose some family members, neighbors or community members you admire.
1. Start off by cutting the light string out of black paper. It can be any shape you like, just squiggle it around. I kept mine about 1.5 inches thick so it would be sturdy to lift once I got it all put together. I overlapped the edges about 1/2 inch and secured with tape.
Want some free tape to get started with this and other holiday projects? Scotch(R) is giving away a roll of double sided tape to 10 lucky winners. Just leave a comment to enter!
Giveaway closes Friday, December 3rd. Good luck!

What a cute idea! We did a thankful tree, we could carry it on!
Great idea. It would be a fun YW activity for the bishop. Thanks!
This reminds me a lot of “heart attacking” people. You cut out hearts and write messages on them and place them on a door or desk etc. It’s fun for Valentine’s Day.

Great idea! I have been following your website for a few months now and I really enjoy getting the daily email stating that you posted something new.
I love this idea!! Being the RS President I need all the ideas I can get and this would be a great inexpensive way for us as a Presidency to show our love for each sister. Thank you for all of your cute ideas!
This is a great idea. I think I will have my boys make this for family night that way when they are having time outs for being mean to one another they can look on the door and remember why they love each other.
thanks
