How to use the craft template generator
Pick a template, then a design and how many fit on a page. Choose color-in for outlines with details to color, or outline only for a clean shape to trace; type names if the template takes them. The preview is the exact page you will print. Download or print it at actual size, color, and cut along the solid lines.
What's included on every template
Every template prints as one page of original vector outlines — or one page per few names for the place cards, gift tags and stockings. A solid black line is always a cut, a dashed line is always a fold, a grey strip marks where glue goes, and a small circle with a crosshair is a hole for a standard hole punch. Each template page opens on its own craft, with its sizes and steps.
Tips for holiday crafts with kids
- Match the paper to the craft: thin copy paper for anything you fold many times, card stock for anything that has to stand up or hang.
- Color before cutting — a whole sheet is easier for small hands to hold steady than a cut-out shape.
- For a class set, print one template at several per page and let children cut their own; the gutters between items leave room for scissors.
- Outline only is the version for tracing onto felt, foam or patterned paper, and it saves ink.
- Keep a stack of the Thanksgiving and Christmas templates together: several make a full table setting — place cards, a thankful turkey and leaves.
Customization options
Template
Eight crafts: a turkey, fall leaves, tent place cards, paper snowflakes, Christmas ornaments, a gingerbread man, gift tags and a Christmas stocking. Each has its own page with steps and tips for that craft.
Design and per-page count
Most templates come in several designs — oak or maple leaves, round or scalloped tags, a whole turkey or a kit of pieces — and print one to nine items per page. Combinations that would print too small are not offered.
Color-in or outline only
Color-in adds decorative lines inside each outline for children to color; outline only keeps the cut, fold and glue marks alone. Paper snowflakes always show their grey cut-away shapes, because those are the instructions.
Names
Place cards, gift tags and stockings print typed names, one item per name and up to 40 at once. The names are only used to build the PDF in your browser.
Paper size
US Letter or A4. Templates are laid out for the sheet you choose, and the file requests actual-size printing.
Frequently asked questions
What craft templates can I print here?
Eight holiday templates: a turkey (whole, or a build-a-turkey kit), fall leaves with optional thankful-tree writing lines, tent place cards, fold-and-cut paper snowflakes, Christmas ornaments, a gingerbread man, gift tags and a Christmas stocking. Each one has several designs and per-page options.
Are these craft templates really free?
Yes. Every template is free to print as often as you like, with no signup, no email and no watermark. The PDF is built in your browser and downloads straight away.
How do I print a template at the right size?
Print at actual size (100%), not “fit to page”. The PDF asks the print dialog for actual size by default; if your printer shrinks it anyway, look for a scale setting of 100%.
What is the difference between color-in and outline only?
Color-in draws decorative lines inside the outline — feathers, veins, icing, bands — ready for crayons. The outline version keeps only the cut line and any fold, glue and punch marks, which suits tracing and saves ink.
What do the solid, dashed and grey lines mean?
Solid black lines are cut lines, dashed lines are folds, a grey strip shows where glue goes, and a circle with a small cross marks a hole to punch. The same key is used on every template.
Can I add names to the templates?
Place cards, gift tags and Christmas stockings take a typed list of names, one item per name. The names stay in your browser: they are not saved, not put in a shared link and not sent to analytics.
Are the craft templates original artwork?
Yes. Every outline is drawn for this site as vector geometry — no clip art, no traced photos and no licensed images — so the lines stay crisp at any print size.
Which craft templates suit preschoolers?
Big, simple shapes at one per page: the whole turkey, the gingerbread man, a single maple leaf or the simple paper snowflake. An adult can do the trickier cuts while the child colors and decorates.
