Having a chalkboard in your home is FABULOUS way to incorporate each holiday and season that comes around.
From the minute we moved in to our house, I knew I wanted a large chalkboard in our foyer. Visions of little rabbits for Easter, hearts for Valentine’s Day, and snowflakes for winter, were all in my head, and I couldn’t wait to get “drawing.”
I had seen a printable on Pinterest, from Rooted In Paper, that had the EXACT look that I was wanting for my chalkboard for Christmas. With a few minor changes, my chalkboard had the EXACT look that I wanted.
Christmas Chalkboard Art
We used chalk markers to make this design! Make sure to check out how to remove chalk marker from a chalkboard when it’s time to clean it after the holidays!
Scarf Tutorial
So you may be wanting to know how we made the scarf on the deer? That’s not colored chalk markers…
… it’s actually part of a gift bag!
Simply cut out three pieces of scrapbook paper (or a gift bag like we did) in to the shapes needed. (One slightly curved piece for the neck, and two smaller, strips for the scarf pieces that hang down.)
Curious about making your own DIY chalkboard? I think you’ll love how a rustic frame can turn out.

Hi Jessica! Just wanted to let you know that i made your apple martini’s at my annual Christmas Eve family celebration and they were a huge hit! I especially loved how easy they were to make. Thanks for the suggestion it was so much fun to introduce something new and fun! I love your website I check in on It frequently as I am creatively challenged. Found your website due to our mutual obsession with Stitch Fix. Happy Holidays and keep blogging. Heather
