Here I decided to create a page to help others be the magic too. Whether it is a special occassion you want to make for no reason, or a kind gesture to show someone they are thought of, or simply fun tasks to show someone that today is gonna look different in the best way possible. Below you will find some of my magic hints to help you share the light with others. Feel free to add your own spin and get creative with creating magic, because you can do anything as everything is possible in the magical realm. Remember to respect property and people in the process.
I live my life through miracles. Every step of the way I have been guided by magic. Now, though this might sound bizzar because those who know me understand I have had my fair share of challenges and road-halts, however the reason I could jump through my own worm holes is because I always tried to see the magic. Life is so much fun when you see special in the ordinary. When you laugh and smile after you ask the wind if it heard you and it replies with a huge gust. When the sun comes out and splashes your face as you envision yourself in a movie as you listen to music on the bus ride. Some may not say these are magic but in my eyes it is. And just like how I can get on a plane to whistler to take the last bed a week before the program starts, or how I can make it back to ontario earlier than anticpated but right in time being a day before wildfires start, I will easily tell you its possible.
I like to be the magic to others that find it hard to see these special moments. I want to be a part of this grand gesture that the universe gifts me with day after day. I want to show you are being looked after in times when you may feel less confident. I want to be your sunflower when you only know your tears. I want to be the secret santa because I want you to feel looked out for. I want to do it all without getting the reconition because getting to hear the unbelievable thing that happened brings me more joy than saying that it was me. My mom always said santa worked through people, and I like to think I get to be one of the elfs to help make the magic happen anytime of year.
This is the perfect date night idea, special picnic, or casual sweet activity.

A simple play off of the 12 days of Christmas act. Instead of doing it from the 12th to Christmas, pick a time that best suites the countdown. Ie. exams, special occasion, or count down to a special surprise your making.
What you'll need:
-someone you want to make their week
-Candy canes (78) - Ziploc bag
- Sharpie - Car
Facilitating the magic:
Start by finding out the best time to arrange count down
For the twelve days leading up to it place a candy cane each day on their car windshield
Add an additional candy each day, So like one for day one, two for day two, three for day three, four for day four etc
Note:
Make sure to put candy cane in a Ziploc bag before placing on anything
If you find you run out of time do to a schedule change, whatever your last day becomes, set bags for the days you are gonna have to skip and place all of them on the last day, (ie. bag of ten, bag of eleven, bag of twelve, all set on the twelfth day.) then write a cute note on the final bag that says something like Merry Christmas.
Avoid placing anything on doors as you want to avoid anything that might make a person feel intruded on
Get creative this doesn't have to just be for Christmas
Use candy, or sticky notes of kind words, or flowers, or anything, their fav. you name it
Does someone you know need a cheer up? This simple gesture might go a long way.
What you'll need:
-Sunflower bouquet ( 4-5, can be different sizes)
- Small postcard size piece of paper
- Elastic - Pen - Scissors
Facilitating the magic:
Start by writing a simple note on the piece of paper and make sure to sign it as your angels
Take any plastic packaging off the flowers, and if you need, cut the stems with scissors so they are a good length
Wrap the piece of paper with the your angels part facing out (might have to fold paper in half) and wrap an elastic around and keep one sunflower out from this bundle
Place in a mail box and hang the single flower on the outside making sure to put flag up and flower hugged between
Note:
Take note of what the weather will be like, best judgment if you think its gonna rain
If no mail box, maybe send it to persons work address, set on a their desk
