12 Days of Christmas Day 1 | Jar of Joy

Thursday, December 4, 2025

Hey friends! Welcome to Day 1 of my 12 Days of Christmas projects! I’m so excited to kick things off. I’ll be sharing two projects every single day to help you with all that last-minute Christmas crafting.

You can watch the video tutorials each day on my YouTube channel, and I’ll also be live a few times—streaming on both YouTube and Facebook. Make sure you’re following my page or subscribed to my YouTube channel (subscribe + hit that bell!) so you don’t miss any of the fun.

Check out the full schedule below ⬇️ and watch today’s video using the link at the end of this post.


I used the Jar of Joy stamp set and the Sweetest Jar Builder punch to create today’s project. The builder punch also coordinates with the Sweet Jar Bundle, too! I also used the Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper (DSP). Doesn't that pattern look like snow falling in the background—so adorable!
