How to Create Christmas Art Prints

You can use stencils and choose the colors that will match the theme of your decorations. Your framed artwork can be customized to fit your holidays! What is your Christmas theme? Is it angels or reindeer or Santa Claus or snowflakes? You can find the perfect stencils to create art prints which will carry your Christmas theme to the walls.

The prints above were made with simple two overlay designs. They were painted on a plain white background, matted and framed. The matte and frame came together in a pre-made package at the local art supply store for very little money. It was a very easy project and they definitely make a statement over the fireplace.

I invite you to watch this informative Holiday Stencil Tutorial Video. It’s great to see some new techniques in action. Plus you’ll pick up on a few fun ideas to add to your holiday preparations.

But wait! There's a video with some great project ideas below.

One of the best benefits of creating hanging wall art stencils to frame is that you can always change the print. They are easy to change out for the holidays of course but if you decide to decorate with reindeer instead of angels, that’s no problem either. Just create new art prints. It’s just a very easy and inexpensive way to decorate.

For some great stencil patterns check out our Stencils Catalog .

Be creative and make a scene! Use two or more stencils together to create a more complex art piece. Use an angel stencil and surround her with some unique star stencils. Or you can paint a Santa Claus with some Christmas trees. Use a larger image as a focal point and then put smaller images around it.

When creating your own stencil Christmas art, you can choose whatever colors best match your decor. Do you stay with the traditional red and green or do you like to dazzle it up with silver and gold? Maybe you’re into retro and you have a silver tree decorated with hot pink and neon green ornaments? The point is that since you are creating your own art, be yourself. Have a good time!

One of my favorite Christmas craft ideas is to pair Christmas stencils with words. Picture two individual prints each a picture of an angel in tones of gold with the words "Peace" and "Joy." This is an opportunity to display the sentiments that mean the most to you.

I recommend Strathmore Windpower Bristol Pads (either the smooth or the vellum).

Just a fun note about the Strathmore Windpower line of Artist Papers, they are made with 100% wind power – a pollution-free, renewable energy resource.

Hey wait... I have another great Stenciling Art video tutorial that I know you'll love. Ever wonder how you can use a stencil to create a 3-D raised image? Well, here are a couple of talented ladies to show you how plus a few more ideas for decorating the designs.

OK - Normally when we think about using stencil designs we imagine pressing paint into the openings. Right now I’m going to ask you to wipe that image out of your mind because we are going to do some Christmas Art Projects that use stencils in a whole new way (like the 3-D Reindeer Centerpiece).

I hope that now you have some great ideas about how you can decorate with stencil Christmas art prints. You are only limited by your own imagination (and I know there is no limit there). You can choose the size, colors, theme, framing…Let’s face it – you are in charge. I know you will have fun with these great Christmas art projects.So go get ‘em and

Happy Stenciling!
