New Snowman and Snowwoman Christmas Design

New Snowwoman Christmas Design

One of my favorite Christmas cartoons is Frosty the Snowman. Yes, I still enjoy watching Christmas cartoons especially now that I get to watch them with my daughter! I still have fond memories of making snowmen with my brother when we were little. I remember how we would hope and wonder if our own snow people would come to life like just like Frosty the Snowman did.

Unfortunately, I live in an area that rarely gets snow, so we don't have many opportunities to create a snowman. That is why I decided to create a snowman and snowwoman design for my Christmas Collection! 

The snowman we created as a child was what I used as an inspiration to draw my snowman and snowwoman. When we were little, we used Oreo cookies for its eyes, so I gave my snowman and snow woman round eyes and added some additional sparkles to give them a friendly appearance. We used small rocks to form its mouth and a carrot for its nose, so I drew those accordingly. Then I drew branches for the arms and gave them both rosy cheeks. 

New Snowman Christmas Design

I chose to dress my snowwoman in pink furry earmuffs and a pink and white striped scarf. For my snowman, I dressed him in a gray and blue toboggan and a gray and blue zigzag patterned scarf.

I chose a soft pale powdery blue as a background for many of the products that I put my snowman and snowwoman design on. The soft, powdery blue really complements the soft pink accessories that I chose for my snowwoman outfit. I also designed some blue snowflakes to add to some of my products to give it the appearance of snowing.

Here are some of my favorite Christmas snowman  and snowwoman products that I designed:

"Just Snow Cute" Snowman Baby Bodysuit
by JuniperBox

Are you looking for new Christmas baby clothes? Consider this snowman onesie! I absolutely adore this snowman onesie! Not only would it make a cute Christmas onesie, but it would be a great winter onesie for the entire season long. The saying "Just Snow Cute" is arched above the snowman, but I gave customers the option to customize the text because there are so many other adorable snowman related sayings like "Let It Snow" and "Baby, It's Cold Outside." I also wanted to give customers the option of just putting their child's name on the onesie. I love how the snowman's arms are thrown up in the air as if he was presenting the words or greeting. This snowman clothing is available in multiple sizes.

Snow Woman Christmas Candy Tin
by JuniperBox

I love this Christmas Candy Tin! This snowman candy tin would make a great Christmas gift for friends, co-workers, a special Christmas stocking stuffer or even a nice Christmas favor. I chose to allow people to customize both the message and the name below to make it even more personal. 

I also like that you can either buy just the custom tin itself or choose to fill it with your choice of jelly beans! They are currently offering 21 Jelly Belly flavors to fill your tin! This allows you to ship it directly to the gift recipient or you can ship it pre-filled to yourself and hand-deliver the gift yourself. 

Personalized Snowwoman Insulated Water Bottle
by JuniperBox

I also love this winter water bottle! This would be a great school water bottle because you can personalize the water bottle with your child's name. The snowperson is also an original design of mine so the water bottle is less likely to be confused with another child's water bottle. The snowman water bottle is insulated so you can use it whether you are celebrating Christmas in Hawaii or Wisconsin. The insulated water bottle can keep hot liquids warm for up to eight hours and cold liquids cold up to eight hours. 

New Gingerbread Boy Cookie Christmas Design

Christmas Gingerbread Boy Design

I was originally inspired to create a super cute gingerbread girl for this Christmas season, and I loved the drawing so much that I knew I had to create a gingerbread man as well.

Like the gingerbread girl, this gingerbread boy also has burnt edges as if it had jumped straight out of the oven. In fact, as I was designing this gingerbread man, I was thinking about The Gingerbread Man story, which was one of my favorite stories to read to my daughter when she was little!

I imagined the gingerbread boy running away from its makers with that mischievous twinkle it its eyes and confident smile. I used fine white lines to mimic icing to design its shirt sand trousers. Then I dressed the gingerbread boy in a red bow tie, and red and white peppermint candy buttons.

I transferred this gingerbread boy image on several products in my store, but these are a few of my favorite items:

Gingerbread Personalized Christmas Ornament
by JuniperBox

I love this adorable gingerbread ornament. The gingerbread boy is on the face of the ceramic ornament and below you can customize it with your child's name. Then on the back of the ornament you have a choice of a few designs. You can choose a beautifully, decorated Christmas tree (which is my favorite), a poinsettia design with gold snowflakes, or a bell design with poinsettias and candles wrapped in red bows. 

Gingerbread Man Christmas Pillow by JuniperBox

Gingerbread Girl Christmas Pillow by JuniperBox

I also love this gingerbread Christmas pillow. I love throw pillows in general because it is a quick and easy way to update your décor. In fact, it is one of the first things I pull out of our Christmas storage because it is the quickest way to liven up our living room and get us in the holiday spirit.

This gingerbread pillow has an image of my cute little gingerbread boy and can be customized with your child's name below or a text of your choosing. The pillow has a red and white striped candy cane edge, and a green border to make the center pop.

Personalized Christmas Baby Pacifier by JuniperBox

Gingerbread Girl Snowflake Christmas Pacifier by JuniperBox

I also love this Christmas pacifier. This Christmas pacifier comes in both pink and blue. I chose to focus only on the head and one arm of the gingerbread man so that it appears to be saying hello. You can customize it with your baby's name or a text of your choosing. 

New Christmas Gingerbread Girl Cookie Design

I know we are a couple months awayfrom Christmas, but I could not stop myself from creating some cute new Christmas characters for my Zazzle Store, JuniperBox!

Christmas Gingerbread Girl Cookie Design

One of my favorite activities during the Christmas season is to bake cookies so naturally the first thing I created was an adorable, rosy-cheeked gingerbread girl cookie.  I gave this gingerbread girl slightly burnt edges to give it that freshly baked appearance. I continued to give her black, sparkling eyes, a sweet smile, and pink rosy cheeks. I decorated her in a red Christmas dress, and matching red bow. Her dress has a green heart with a crosshatch design, and I used white to give her a fine, lace collar. The hem of her dress has a pattern of red, green and white stripes. I completed her look by giving her additional fine icing details on her hands and feet and gave her a red and white striped candy cane to hold.

I placed this design on several products, but my top favorite products I created was a Christmas apron and a Christmas coffee mug (or Christmas hot cocoa mug).

Personalized Christmas Apron
by JuniperBox

Every year my daughter and I bake Christmas cookies together for our family and friends. We have aprons that are designated just for this special holiday season. This gingerbread girl apron would put anyone in the right mood. I love the vivid red and greens in her dress, and her cheery, rosy-cheeked disposition. I also love that you can further customize this apron by adding your own name to it. I know that my daughter is at the age where she loves having her name on everything.

Personalized Gingerbread Girl Mug
by JuniperBox

My daughter also LOVES hot cocoa. She is actually fond of a hotel, not for how nice the accommodations were, but because of the hot chocolate they served! She looked forward to having that hot chocolate every time she visited that hotel and was sad that new owners had taken over that hotel chain and discontinued serving the hot cocoa!

We love cocoa so much at home that we create our own hot cocoa recipe and always top it off with marshmallows. As the weather is getting colder, we are drinking more and more hot cocoa at home. I think this gingerbread girl Christmas mug would make a wonderful personalized gift for this upcoming season for those who enjoy hot coffee or hot cocoa. Simply customize it with the recipient’s name, and add a package of hot cocoa and marshmallows inside to complete the gift.
