Opening advent calendars is one way to celebrate the holidays with LEGO (which you know we love!), but at The Brothers Brick, we’re even more excited by fans who use the occasion to create their own jolly builds. The 24 Days of Brickmas challenge on Instagram is a tradition about just that! Organizer Jessica (@dontbrickmedown) provided a list of daily prompts if you want to join in!
There are plenty of prizes for participants, including some exclusively for children. The Brothers Brick will be contributing two sets of six collectible Minifigures from the upcoming series – one set for AFOLs, one set for KFOLs (Kid fan of LEGO). It’s not too late to try for a 24-day streak, or pick your favorite themes and join in the fun for a snow day.
Here are a few of the early entries for this year’s challenge for inspiration:
snarkybrixx offers up this delightful greeble mosaic full of holiday cheer.
msfarkelbrix doubles up with #MosaicsonMonday for this intricate red tree.
Yennj Rudloff starts the count with a calendar-themed minifigure and mosaic.
Mason_ry_brick goes monochrome and merry with an all-red habitat with holiday decor.
Finally, Krypto_bricks takes advantage of the “Red” theme overlapping with “red” for this cozy superhero scene. Scarlet counts as red, right?
If you build your own creations, be sure to use the #24daysofbrickmas hashtag. Merry Brickmas!
