twinklers
Things that glitter
Things that twinkle—stars, decorative lights, or eyes bright with amusement.
The word most often describes small lights that flash or shimmer: The twinklers on the Christmas tree cast dancing shadows.
Applied to eyes, it suggests mischief or delight: Her eyes were twinklers when she told the joke.
