Looking for a fast, budget-friendly way to add festive cheer to your home this Christmas? Try drawing elegant snowflakes on your windows with erasable chalk markers.
This simple technique transforms plain glass into a winter wonderland—no artistic skills required. As a DIY crafting expert with years of holiday projects under my belt, I can vouch for its ease and impact.
Tape a snowflake template on the outside of the window, then trace the contours inside with an erasable marker. Watch how it's done:
- White liquid chalk marker
- Glass cleaner
- Snowflake templates (download below)
- Cloth
- Tape
- Sheet of paper
