How to Make a Lucia Nightlight Ornament:

  • Start by punching a hole into the bottom of your ping pong ball. This hole can be a hole or x-shape that will later slide over the “flame” are of the LED tea light.
  • One the hole has been cut, it’s time to draw a face on to the ping pong ball and make the paper crown.

    – attaching hair with tape
    – sliding crown over the head
    – slipping the crown onto the LED Light
    – the last step will be to place the head onto the LED Light
