The spark starts here
Ideas matter. So does how you tell them.
This blog is where we go beyond the bulbs. At Son of a Nutcracker Lights, we believe the stories behind what we do matter just as much as the displays themselves. Here, we dig into the craft, culture, and community that fuel our work — from lighting innovations to design trends, charitable partnerships, and the meaning of seasonal tradition.
We explore how lighting can shape experiences, support causes, and spark joy in fresh, meaningful ways. You’ll find behind-the-scenes insight, big-picture thinking, and occasional commentary on how broader events shape the way we light the season. It’s festive content — with substance.
