Winter Solstice at Home
As we head into the longest night of the year, there is a clear invitation to sit with the darkness and reflect. You might be taking part in your own ritual or event this year, but if not we’ve put together some fun activities to bring the light to your own homes this solstice.
- Mandarin tea lights – make these delightful candles to bring warmth to your solstice (and a great zesty smell).
- Lantern Making – create these lanterns at home to bring some creativity to your evening.
- Mulled Wine recipe – Sip on a beautifully spiced drink to warm our bellies.
- Sustainable firewood – Feel the light and warmth with sustainable firewood.
Get cosy and let the warmth of these activities fill your night.
