Snowflake Stencils on Color Diffusing Paper

These beautiful snowflakes created by @2art.chambers on Instagram are made using our Super Snowflake Stencils and can be created on Color Diffusing Paper. Simply add watercolor to your Color Diffusing Paper. Once dry, use the stencils to trace snowflakes with a bold marker. Add color and/or salt for fun effects!

Easy Christmas Tree Ornaments

Turn art time into decoration time with Blots of Ornaments! This super easy, time saving craft project requires little setup but is loads of fun! Grab watercolors and paint the precut ornament shapes to your preference. Spray with water for blending effects. Once dry, design ornaments with collage materials and add a string to hang on a tree!

Mega Ornaments

3D Ornaments make the perfect craft to hang around the classroom! Color the ornament shapes with markers, crayons, or paint, then assemble the pieces to “pop” them into 3D forms. Add names, fun patterns, or glitter glue for extra Christmas sparkle.

Color Diffusing Evergreen Tree by Roylco

Customized Christmas Trees

Roylco’s Color Diffusing Evergreen Trees make it easy to create beautiful holiday art using watercolor effects. These soft, absorbent paper trees blend colors effortlessly — giving every child an instant “artist moment. Drip or brush liquid watercolor over the trees and watch the colors spread. Add salt for a snowy texture or paint ornaments, lights, and garlands directly on the tree shapes once they dry.

Seasonal Celebration Wreaths

Add a warm, welcoming touch to any home or classroom with Celebration Wreaths! For Christmas, these wreaths make the perfect festive keepsake. Decorate wreaths using paint, crayons, markers, collage paper, sequins, or even bits of wrapping paper. The interior flaps curl up and lock in place, making the wreath dimensional and eye-catching. Add ornaments, stars, holly leaves, or handwritten messages like “Merry Christmas” for a personal touch.
