IMPORTANT UPDATE: I had uploaded a scrapped design for the original baubles which aren't as good and had a little too small holes and channel for the Christmas lights. I am really happy that it got 5 ratings regardless. 

I have updated the profile with the redesigned baubles + bigger holes, please make sure to download the new baubles!

Christmas Lights Baubles 🎄✨💡

Light up your tree with magical baubles that reveal glowing pictures when the lights come on! Each bauble is designed with a festive shell and a swap-able “front” to change the scene inside whenever you want, for a custom holiday vibe. Perfect for creating cozy, personal corners at home or making your gifts extra special ❤️🎁

Bauble Designs 🟢🔴🔵🟠

Pick from several bauble bodies, each with different patterns and textures. All available designs are organized on separate plates in the Baubles profile so you can easily select your favorites. More shells and patterns are in the works and will be added regularly. Watch the Baubles section for updates and new drops! 🎄🌟✨

Front & Light Installation & Hook Details 💡🔗

Each bauble comes with a specially designed hole and hook at the top, making it super easy to install on your Christmas lights. Just insert the light bulb through the larger hole, then guide the cable into the nearby slot so it “locks” in place and stays put. The hook is sturdy for tree branches or ornament hangers, letting your baubles shine bright and hang secure all holiday season ✨🌲🪝

Pop in a light, let the cable catch in the slot, and watch your chosen scene glow even more - no extra, bulbs, clips or tools needed!

Front & Light Installation 🖼️💡

Each bauble front is held in place by three small props and a guiding channel between them. Just press the plate inward at each prop until it pops into the channel—no tools needed! If you push it in too far, you can use the light hole to insert a small tool, press the plate back out, and try again.

Don’t worry about aligning the picture before it’s snapped in. Once it’s in the channel, you can easily rotate it to get the scene just right. This flexible system makes swapping and adjusting images quick and painless for perfectly lit ornaments every time.

First insert the two props that are closer to each other (near the top of the bauble)

Rotate the bauble and press down near the last prop

Fronts 🖼️🌙🔦

The “fronts” (or lightbox pictures) are the glowing scenes that sit inside each bauble. Every image comes with settings for both 0.2 mm and 0.4 mm nozzle prints (0.2 recommended for sharp details). You’ll also find AMS and NO AMS versions for every profile—just look for the “AMS” and “NO AMS” labels on the plates. AMS versions are perfect for multi-color prints if you have an Automatic Material System, and NO AMS keeps setups simple for everyone else. Color swap and filament suggestions are included for each picture, pauses are already set in the profile 🌈🧑🎄🕯️

All fronts can swap easily between baubles, mix up your scenes whenever inspiration strikes! As the season rolls on, expect more festive lightbox art like nativity scenes, snowy trees, or cute animals to be added to the Fronts section 🎅❄️🦌

Make your tree glow with custom art all season long. More scenes and bauble shells coming soon, so keep an eye out for fresh updates and sparkling new ideas! 🌟🎁🌲
