Sometimes, we need a creative activity that's simple, mess-free, and instantly satisfying.
I've been drawing these little gingerbread houses with white paint pens, and I love how calming and joyful it feels.
It's a festive way to add a bit of winter magic to your day without pulling out all your art supplies.
All you need is brown craft paper (even a grocery bag works!) and a white paint pen to create charming little houses that can be turned into holiday cards or gift tags.
Or simply enjoy making them in a moment of creative peace ❄️
Why you'll love this:
Getting lost in creative flow (perfect for stress relief)
Adding handmade charm to your holiday cards and gifts
Finding a peaceful moment in the holiday rush
Creating something delightful (even if you think you "can't draw")
If you need a calm, creative break during the holiday season, and could use some mindful making time, these little houses can be a sweet place to start.
You can grab my favorite paint pen for this project in my Holiday Gift Guide → Find it here
Joyfully creating,
