After you have decided what to put on your window, it's time to let those creative juices start flowing and get painting. Use plenty of paint, especially in the areas where the detail is low. Think very abstract -if using paint, just stroke it on to make pretty patterns.
Tips for Making Christmas Window Paintings:
Christmas window paintings can be an easy holiday decoration that will last for years to come. Here are some tips to make it even easier.
- Make sure your window is clean and free of dust. If you have a window with panes, make sure that all of the panes are clean and free of dust as well. You can clean it with soap and a damp cloth or windex for great results.
- Start with a sketch, and make sure it's to scale. You can also buy stencils, templates or decals which is probably the easiest way to create your design. You can buy these on etsy
- Choose your type of paints or markers carefully. The paints you use should be made especially for windows; anything else might leave stains on the glass or fade over time. I like using chalk markers or window acrylic paints.
- If you are going to add layers to your painting, a good option is washable tempera paint and a white base. Also make sure you let each coat dry completely before layering more colors on.
- Use painter tape around the edge of your windows to make sure it doesn't get on your window sills!
- Use paintbrushes designed for use on windows, not regular brushes or rollers if you can avoid it, because they're easier to control on small spaces like windows and won't leave brushstrokes behind if you're careful about application.
- Let it dry overnight before removing the tape or stencils from your holiday window painting!
Christmas window painting ideas are the inspiration you need to spruce up your windows and decorate your home with something handmade and fun. Windows make up a large portion of the exterior of your home, so it is no surprise that they are often overlooked during the holiday season.
Paint out an impressive design or add a few Christmas themed items to your window. You can use the supplies you already have from past holiday events and paint out your own design. For the kids, have them draw out the design for you. A combination of glitter paint and snow spray adds extra holiday cheer.
