Winter Window Wreaths

This year, I’ve committed to offering new traceable wreaths and window art designs every single month, starting with a beautiful collection of nine Winter Window Wreaths created just for January.

I am thrilled to share today a new, beautiful collection of nine Winter Window Wreaths created just for January. They’re calm, cozy, fresh, and perfect for the season.

Winter Window Wreath Art

I have to confess something. When I grabbed my spray bottle and microfiber cloth to wash off the Christmas wreaths I had traced onto our windows, I actually paused.

Stood there for a moment. And then sighed.

Those bright, cheery Christmas wreaths had brought so much joy into our home throughout December that I wasn’t quite ready to let them go.

They made every window feel festive, cozy, alive, and erasing them felt like saying goodbye to a little bit of magic.

But then it hit me.
Why do we only decorate our windows for Christmas?
Why not keep that joy going all year long?

So that’s exactly what we’re doing.

These wreaths are perfect for the winter season … a gentle shift from the brightness of Christmas to the quiet beauty of winter.

And honestly? I love them so much. They make the house feel peaceful and intentional, like a soft reset after the holidays.

The Inspiration Behind This Project

If you followed along in December, you know how much I loved creating the Christmas Window Wreaths for my Handmade Christmas series. The response blew my mind — over 30,000 downloads and 800,000 views on Instagram! It was clear that you loved them just as much as I did, and that made the project even more special.

When I finally washed off the last wreath after Christmas, I felt sad, which told me everything I needed to know.

I wasn’t ready for the window art to go.
And you weren’t either.

So January became the beginning of a brand-new series: Monthly Window Wreath Art.

Every month, I’ll share a fresh batch of themed designs you can download, print, tape to your window, and trace to create beautiful seasonal art in your home. Think flowers in spring, citrus in summer, leaves in fall… and so much more. For now, we’re beginning with winter. Quiet, calm, beautiful winter.

Why Winter Wreath Window Art?

January can feel a little bare. The garlands are packed away, the trees are down, and the house looks… well, empty.

And even though I appreciate the clean slate of a new year, I always find myself wanting to add just a touch of warmth back into the space. Something subtle but beautiful. Something that doesn’t scream “holiday” but still brings a little joy when you walk by a window.

These winter wreaths are precisely that.

They’re composed of soft winter greens, juniper branches, pine clusters, snowflakes, berries, and delicate botanical elements that feel like a walk through a frosty garden. Some designs are airy and whimsical; others are more detailed and full. You can choose whichever style suits you.

What’s Included in the Winter Wreath Collection

I designed nine wreaths, each unique yet coordinated so you can mix and match across rooms.
You can download them here. Here’s a sneak peek at the themes:

• Winter Greens Wreath – full pine, juniper, and soft winter branches
• Snowflake Wreath – airy, light, with snowflakes all around
• Winterberry Circle – minimalist with little berries
• Botanical Winter Ring – delicate stems and leaves
• Evergreen Cascade – slightly asymmetrical for a more organic look
• Frosted Pine Wreath – heavier greens and soft accents
• Starry Winter Wreath – tiny stars and sparkles mixed in
• January Florals – subtle flowers paired with greens
• Mixed Elements Wreath – a blend of berries, greens, and snow shapes

How to Use the Winter Wreath Templates

Downloading and printing your wreaths is easy, especially if you’ve already done the Christmas ones. They will be even easier this time, as I hired someone to ensure they are hassle-free!

1. Download the templates

Click this link above to download the nine Winter Window Wreaths. You will also have an option to subscribe to my monthly window wreath designs.

2. Decide which wreath belongs in which room

I like choosing one main design for the kitchen window and then coordinating styles for the family room, dining room, entryway, etc.

3. Use BlockPoster (optional)

If you want a different-sized wreath than what is listed, you can use BlockPoster.com — it’s free and prints your design across multiple pages.

4. Trim the borders

Cut away the white margin around each sheet with scissors so your lines match up seamlessly. Tape the wreath together.

5. Tape the template to the outside of the window

Use painter’s tape or clear tape. Position the wreath exactly where you want it.

6. Trace from the inside

This is important!
If you trace on the outside and it rains, your artwork will wash away.
Tracing from the inside protects it, even on stormy days.

What You Need to Trace the Wreaths

You don’t need much, and you probably have most of it:

• Acrylic paint markers (my favorite brand is linked here – white looks amazing in winter)
• Painter’s tape
• Paper towels (for any “oops” moments)
• A steady hand – though trust me, perfection doesn’t matter at all!

How to Trace the Wreaths

This technique comes straight from the Christmas Wreath Window Art project, and it couldn’t be easier:

1. Tape the printed wreath to the outside of the window.

Clean both sides of the window, then tape the wreath to the exterior. You will be tracing the wreath on the inside of the window.

2. Add medium details

Move on to the pine needles, berry clusters, branches, and lines.

3. Finish with tiny details

Just like shading in a drawing, the magic happens with the finishing touches. Little dots, tiny leaves, extra snowflakes — it all adds depth.

4. Step back and check the balance

Take a few steps back. If one side looks a little heavy, add a small branch or a sprinkle of dots to the other.

Tips for the Best Results

Here are some great tricks I learned from doing this over and over:

• Try different marker line weights

Use thicker markers for the outline and thin markers for detail.

• Don’t worry about imperfections

Winter wreaths look best when the lines are loose and organic.

• Clean your window first

A streak-free surface makes your paint go on smooth.

• Make it an activity

Kids LOVE this. Friends love it too. It’s great for crafting nights.

• You can layer designs

One wreath + a cluster of snowflakes around it = stunning.

How Long Will the Wreaths Last?

As long as you trace them on the inside of the window, the designs will last:

• through rain
• through snow
• through cold drafts
• through laundry steam
• through kitchen humidity

They only come off when you choose to remove them with a paper towel and water or glass cleaner. Just don’t rub them.

Why I Love These Winter Wreaths So Much

There is something adorable about having art on the windows in January. The days are shorter, the house is quieter after the holidays, and these wreaths bring such an uplifting feeling — like a soft layer of winter charm framing the world outside.

Every time I walk into the kitchen in the morning and see the soft winter greens traced on the window, it feels cozy. Peaceful. Intentional. Exactly how I want January to feel.

And based on how many of you reached out saying you already miss your Christmas wreaths — I think you’re going to love these just as much.

What’s Coming Next

This is just the beginning! Each month this year, I’ll release:

• new wreath themes
• seasonal window art
• florals, hearts, leaves, citrus…

So stay tuned, because February’s collection is going to be so cute.

Final Thought

Starting this Winter Window Wreath Art project has given me so much joy. It sustains the creative momentum from Christmas in a simpler, softer way and brings a unique kind of magic to the new year.

Whether you trace just one wreath or fill your home with all ten, I hope these designs brighten your January as much as they have brightened mine.

Here’s to fresh starts, winter beauty, and making creativity part of our everyday lives.
