It's that time of year again! We all love to change our phone backgrounds around the holidays, so I've created SIX new ones for you to use this season.
Download the size you need below, and leave me a comment telling me which one is your favorite!
Note: The knit sweater and fa la la patterns both work great as wallpapers, but make the time on your lock screen more difficult to read. If you love the knit pattern and still want to read the time, try the red version instead!
I'm not someone who loves DIY wrapping paper, mostly because so many great wrapping paper already exists. I am, however, someone who definitely loves a homemade touch on the card or the gift tag!
I made these printable gift tags and ran them through my Minc foil applicator. I got this for my birthday and it's amazing. I love how easy it is to make a simple laser print really gorgeous. (This isn't a sponsored post; I just really love it!)
Print out the PDF below on cardstock with a laser printer, and cut your favorite color of foil sheet to size for the tags. I ran them through on heat setting 3 and it worked perfectly!
The first page has six different gift tags to choose from, and the second page is a full pattern page of Xs and Os so you can cut them in whatever shape you want!
The foil is so shiny; it looks amazing when it catches the light–although that also makes it really difficult to photograph!
I hope you love these tags as much as I do! You can totally adapt them to any wrapping paper, depending on the color of foil you choose. Which one is your favorite?
Valentine's Day is in just two weeks, and I've been loving all the pinks and reds taking over my social media recently. It's been a couple months since I made the holiday phone wallpapers, and it's definitely time to freshen up your phone background! Just click the link below for your phone size and save the image. I sized them for iPhones, but if you have an Android, just choose whichever one is the best resolution for your screen.
Happy December 1st–or as I like to call it, Christmas 1st! The holiday season is my absolute favorite time of year. Everything is sparkly and exciting, everyone is generally in a great mood, and cheesy holiday movies are abundant.
Those predictable Christmas movies aren’t for everyone, but my family loves them. I mean, loves them. The storylines are all so similar, and they all wrap up within a neat hour and a half (or two hours, if you’re watching with commercials). They’re always a reliable choice to put me in a spirited mood, and nothing is better than cozying up with a mug of hot chocolate, a blanket, and your closest friends with one of these “classics.”
My mom and I have been working on a list of events that make an uncanny number of appearances throughout these movies over the past couple years, and I finally made them into bingo cards! Now you can host a Holiday Movie Bingo party and laugh your way through the predictability of these movies too. There are 8 different cards, so you can invite over as many friends as can fit in your living room. Play along by tagging @xheightment and #HolidayMovieBingo on Instagram! (Bonus: they can also double as a fun drinking game, if you so choose!)
Some of my favorite movies are the ones that come on the Hallmark channel and Lifetime, but Netflix has some great options too! Check out Christmas Crush, 12 Dates of Christmas, Holiday Engagement, Holidaze, A Christmas Kiss, The Mistletones, and All I Want for Christmas—and once if you've watched all of those, Netflix will just keep recommending Christmas movies to you until the end of time. Or at least until the end of the year!
Now I know you’re going to want to play this more than once, so instead of using traditional bingo daubers, try using Hershey’s Kisses or peppermints as markers! I found these adorable Kisses that look like Santa hats—how cute are they???
And of course, don’t forget to have prizes for the winners!
What are some of your favorite holiday movies? Are you a more traditional, Miracle on 34th Street and It's a Wonderful Life type? Or will you be playing #HolidayMovieBingo with me this year and watching all the cheesy romances?
Today is the last day of November, which means the winter holiday season is fully upon us. To help you (and me!) get in the spirit, I've made 5 downloadable wallpapers to use on your phones this winter! Click the links below each photo to save the appropriate size for your phone.
