Hi everyone. Today I am doing a guest post over at The Wood Connection. I am showing how to make this fun whimsical Christmas frame. Be sure to visit them to see a full tutorial on how to paint and glitter this cute little project along with a great technique on how to paint and glitter the wooden dots!
If you are visiting from the Wood Connection…Welcome! I am glad that you are here and hope that you will stay a while and take a look around and that you will want to come back again and again!
Here are the printables for this frame. I have done both 11 x 14 (which is the size frame that I did) and 8 x 10 sizes.
11 x 14 size
8 x 10 size.
I did a couple of different traditional variations, if you are not into the subway art style.
And the same one with a white background.
11 x 14 size.
8 x 10 size.
To print these, right click over the image and go to “save image as” , then save in one of your pictures files. I sent mine to Costco and I found out (the hard way, after printing several) that at the very end of your order there is a place to click that you do not want auto color adjustments! Be sure to click that or the reds will be maroon!
Now for a fun giveaway!
The Wood Connection has given me a $25 gift certificate to their store, to give away to one LUCKY winner!

Hi Rita, I loved your printable so much I used it for a craft in a completely different way. I’d love it if you came and had a look. Thanks so much for sharing http://mellywoods5.blogspot.com.au/2012/12/no-sew-santa-sack.html#
I love everything about Christmas, but my most favorite part is reliving our Christmases past with family and friends. Creating my own traditions as my family grows and incorporating a bit of mine and my husbands childhood traditions into our own.
Thanks for the fun little printable. It is perfect!
Have a lovey Christmas!
SusieQ, You are welcome. Glad that you like it. Hope you have a very happy holiday!
My favorite thing about Christmas is searching for fun stocking stuffers all year long! We draw names and my whole side of the family (4 generations) fill each others stockings. We love doing this and everyone looks forward to it! Santa leaves the stockings at one house and everyone gets together to open them together…youngest to oldest of course! So much fun!!!
Rebecca, What a wonderful tradition! I love that you have 4 generations that do this! It is so fun to hear about other people’s traditions and I love this one! Hope your holidays are wonderful!
Rita
You are awesomesause to share these! Merry Christmas, Mr. Grinch! :D
Malissa, Thank you for your kind comment and Merry Christmas, Mr. Grinch! Happy Holidays. Rita
To the above reasons I would add one more and that is seeing my five grown children, spouses and children enjoying each others company one day a year after enduring their teenage years wondering if they ever would like each other.
