Light Show Lunacy: Twinkle Trouble ✨

Published on November 20, 2025

Share:

Your elf discovered the Christmas lights and things got a little tangled! This bright and festive scene shows your elf having fun (or getting into trouble) with the holiday lights.

You Will Need This:

  • • Your holiday elf
  • • Christmas lights (string lights work best)
  • • A surface or area to display the scene
  • • Optional: Extension cord or power source
  • • Optional: Mini signs or notes

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1: Set Up the Lights

Arrange a string of Christmas lights on a table, mantel, or surface. You can have them partially tangled or neatly arranged - both work great!

Step 2: Create the Tangle

If going for the "tangled" look, wrap some lights around your elf or create a fun tangle. Make sure it's safe and the lights aren't too tight!

Step 3: Position Your Elf

Place your elf in or near the lights. You could have them "holding" the lights, sitting among them, or even "wrapped" in them (safely, of course!).

Step 4: Add Bright Details

Add a small sign that says "I got a little tangled!" or "So many lights!" Turn the lights on for photos to create a magical, twinkling effect.

Pro Tips:

  • • Use LED lights for safety (they don't get hot)
  • • Make sure lights are unplugged when positioning your elf
  • • This scene looks amazing with the lights turned on for photos
  • • Position near a window for natural light during the day
  • • Kids will love the bright, festive nature of this scene!
