Indoor Stars Light Winter Nights
Bring the night sky indoors with twinkling lanterns, star charts, clever curtains and more
It's that time of year where there's more darkness and less sunlight each day. And while no one enjoys seeing it grow dark at 4:30 p.m., it's fun to look up in the sky on a winter's evening and see a landscape of stars in the night sky. Stars have a special magical effect wherever they are. Here are some ways to bring stars inside to light up your home.
Your eyes are immediately drawn up to the star-shaped glass lanterns hanging from the ceiling. These Moravian Stars make beautiful light fixtures for this bathroom.

Tip: Put your star-shaped lanterns on a dimmer so you can control how bright your star is. Sometimes, you may want to lower the light for a little romance.

Twinkle Curtain DAYDREAM Toddler daytime nap curtain by GRAstudio
I have this curtain in my baby girl's nursery. I love seeing the light shine through the die-cut stars, just like the twinkle-twinkle of the night sky. The curtain also casts the coolest shadows on the wall in the morning light.

Tip: Moravian Stars date back to a Protestant community in Germany, and they were originally used as Christmas decorations.
