I almost can’t believe that Christmas is less than a week away at this point. December is going by so fast!

Before the season gets any further away from me, I want to share a free, holiday printable with you, with the help of my designer friend Jordan from Create Like Crazy. J came up with these super fun stencils for you to decorate wrapping paper, gift tags, and favor bags during the holidays. It’s kind of addictive once you get started too. So be warned. I started stenciling tea towels and fabric once I finished photographing these little guys.

More shapes and phrases in the 4 page download below.

Just cut out the stencil you want to use, grab some paint and a paint brush, and go to town. Pretty easy!

I’ve been wanting to add printables to the roster here at papernstitch for nearly a year now, but I know I don’t have the time or expertise to dream up cool designs for you. So I enlisted the help of a friend, who is an awesome designer…And today, I’m happy to announce a new, collaborative column called Print It, with Jordan from Create Like Crazy. Each month, we’ll be sharing a (totally free) printable here on PNS that you are free to download and enjoy.

This first printable is Thanksgiving-inspired, since Turkey day is just a few weeks away. BUT you can really use these  all year long – anytime you want to say thanks to someone you love. When you download the PDF below, you’ll receive a notecard, 2 labels (one for wine and one for packages), and a gift tag.

I’ve been stocking up on all things organizational this month to plan out my year and one of the things that I’ve been looking at is calendars. Lots of calendars! All types of calendars too. I have already found my big wall calendar for the year, but I want something small to carry around with me wherever I go too. Maybe something like this mini calendar from Ready Go? Isn’t it cool? I really love Ready Go. And actually, I kind of feel like I need to throw a party just so I have an excuse to buy some of the other goodies in this shop - like these printable flags, gold glitter cake bunting, and these gift tags.

Every year I try to find a new and interesting wrapping paper to use for all our presents and gather up a bunch of tags and other packaging goodies. Honestly, wrapping presents is one of my favorite holiday activities.

So I picked up the wrapping paper a few weeks ago at a craft fair and since then I’ve been hunting for the perfect tags. But there are SO MANY awesome (free) printables online this year I am finding it tough to decide. Which is why I am rounding up all my favorites here for you. And asking… Which ones would you choose? I am leaning towards them all. Haha….

A happy DIY Friday to you all! I’m so excited to be back this week sharing some crafty ideas that caught my eye over the past couple weeks. We’re smack-dab in the middle of the holiday season, and with Halloween barely over a week gone, it’s time to start the turkey talk! This year I’m helping my mom chic things up a bit at her table, and between all the planning, cooking and hostessing, one of my favorite fall-back DIYs is printables!

You can find them for almost everything: place cards, menus, dessert flags, even cup labels, and they’re a great way to add a handmade touch to the holidays without adding extra stress. I’m head-over-heels for all the ones I’ve rounded up for you today, and they’ve already got my brain buzzing with place settings and floral arrangements to go with them. Let’s take a peek!
