Holiday inspiration comes in all forms. Sometimes I am passing by decor in a store and I think, ” I could totally rock a DIY with that” and guess what? I buy the materials and create my own holiday project. As holiday tunes blast on from my speakers, my fingers move through this simple holiday DIY. 

The holiday season is one of both the sweet and sour temperaments, depending on the stress levels in our day. My DIY glow in the dark candy-filled ornament is perfect for those crazy days and mood swings.

Bookmark this page, share with your church groups, families, gatherings and get crafting. Enjoyment of the holidays is about merriment in preparation. Lavishly live life out loud, and craft DIY Glow In The Dark Candy Filled Ornament.

Have you ever seen a candy-filled ornament? With the holiday season, many people are sweet and some are sour like the Grinch, so I have the perfect Sweet and Sour treats to fill up a clear ornament and it then makes it glow in the dark.

Today as you read the article, please note that some of the highlighted links may be affiliate links. If you click on the links and then make a purchase from the website, I may receive some type of compensation. Regardless, I will only recommend products or services I use personally or believe will add value to my readers. Which is why I have added said links! 

GRAB YOUR INGREDIENTS

Use any candy you want like those pictured below, gummy bears, fish, whatever you like and whatever fits inside the ornament opening. Mix up the colors, and enjoy all the different flavors, this is supposed to be a fun project! There are no wrong colors when it comes to creativity. 

I advise buying a few extra bags because you will have small customers that will want to enjoy the tasting party before it all goes together!

First get the tulle into the ornament, by taking off the top and placing tulle in.

You can use the glow stick to get a little help with the ‘pushing in’. 

Next, add the Sour Punch® Raging Reds Bites®.

Then you will want to mix in the  Sour Punch® Blue Assorted Bites®. 

Finally, it’s got to be lit, so crack a glow stick ( I buy them in bulk on Amazon)

Bend the glow stick and push it on into the bulb. Super easy to do. 

Doesn’t it look great? This is perfect for decorating a tree when everyone is over and letting it glow. My other idea is to do this to let Santa’s Reindeer find your home on the night of Christmas Eve! Light up a tree outside for ONE night, no electricity required.

Replace the top and enjoy your new DIY glow in the dark, candy-filled ornament. 

Enjoy the glowing of a sweet and sour DIY ornament. Pass them out, keep them for yourself, load your tree! You never know which day you want to taste sweet things or what day might be sour, so you are covered! Lavishly live the holidays out loud! ~DANA

    I love the glowing in the dark idea really colorful. I have a question I have not understood if later on we will be able to eat the sweets or they will be in the bulb forever?

    Interesting idea! I’m pretty sure that this will be totally sold out to the kids this holiday season. That said, while the glow stick touch is terrific, is it totally safe to mix it directly with Sour Punch? Pardon my ignorance but I was wondering if there would be some sort of chemical reaction here and there between the stick and the candy.

    Otherwise, looks super!

      the glow stick stays in it’s container — self contained no mixing and in our house the candy inside hardly stays long enough

    Awesome holiday idea! Is purely sour punch the candy of choice or do you think it’s fine if we go into mix-ins with gummy worms?

    Not that the candy choice matters but I thought I’d ask anyway.

    Wow! I can definitely use this as a decorarion for our Christmas tree! And since it has a glow in the dark stick in it I would not need to put on some christmas lights. Less electrical bill for us, plus the candies in it, less gifts to wrap for the kids dropping by. This DIY ornament is really a great idea for the holliday season.

    Your DIYs are always so creative Dana. I love doing DIY projects but reality is always far from expectations. :(. I assume the glow stick loses its glow after some time so there is a need to replace it every now and then.

    Kids are going to love this and if you’re feeling generous they can take it home as souvenirs during family gatherings. This is a really creative and fun idea. I wish I thought of it myself!
