Fun Things To Do With Your Winter Coloring Pages

Once your little artists finish their winter coloring pages, the fun doesn’t have to stop! Here are some creative craft ideas and projects to turn your printable coloring sheets into keepsakes, decorations, and gifts.

1. Snowflake Window Art

Turn your colored winter coloring pages into sparkling window art. Once your coloring sheets are finished, cut out snowflakes, snowmen, or winter animals from the pages. Tape them to your windows, then brush a thin layer of vegetable oil on the back to make the paper slightly see-through. When the light shines through, it creates a beautiful stained-glass effect that looks magical on snowy days.

2. Winter Garland Decorations

Use your printable winter coloring pages to create a garland that brings the season indoors. Cut out your favorite colored images — mittens, hot cocoa mugs, penguins, and snowflakes — and punch a small hole at the top of each. String them together with yarn or ribbon and hang across doorways, bulletin boards, or mantels. This is a great classroom or party craft that adds a cozy winter vibe anywhere you hang it.

3. DIY Winter Greeting Cards

Your finished coloring sheets can become sweet winter greeting cards for friends and family. Fold a sheet of cardstock in half, glue your colored winter scene to the front, and write a message inside. It’s perfect for thank-you notes, holiday cards, or cheerful “Happy Winter!” messages. These homemade cards are personal and heartwarming — perfect for gifting!

4. Snowman Paper Puppets

Kids will love turning their free printable coloring pages into snowman puppets. After coloring, cut out the snowmen or winter characters and glue them onto popsicle sticks or straws. Once dry, they can be used for fun puppet shows or storytelling. Try making a whole cast of winter characters — snowmen, penguins, reindeer, and polar bears — for an afternoon of creative play.

5. Winter Collage Wall Art

Collect several finished coloring sheets and turn them into a large winter collage. Cut out your favorite parts — snowflakes, snowy trees, scarves, or sleds — and glue them onto a big poster board to create one giant winter mural. This activity is especially fun for classrooms or family nights, where everyone can contribute their art to make a shared winter masterpiece.

6. Homemade Gift Tags

Add a special touch to winter gifts by turning your printable coloring sheets into custom tags. Cut out small shapes like stars, mittens, or hearts from your finished pages. Punch a hole in each and thread a ribbon through. Write names on the back and attach them to presents or treat bags. Each tag is one-of-a-kind and makes your gifts even more special.

7. Winter Scrapbook Pages

Use your completed winter coloring pages as scrapbook backgrounds or decorations. Trim around the designs and glue them into a scrapbook along with photos of your winter adventures — sledding, building snowmen, or baking cookies. Add stickers, washi tape, or glitter glue for extra sparkle. It’s a fun way to save both memories and artwork in one place.

8. Hot Cocoa Cup Sleeves

Turn your printable winter coloring pages into cozy cup sleeves for hot drinks. Cut strips from your colored pages to fit around paper cups, then tape or glue them in place. These DIY sleeves look adorable on cups of cocoa or tea, especially at winter parties. You can even personalize each one with a name for family or guests.

9. Winter-Themed Bookmarks

Transform your coloring sheets into festive bookmarks. Cut out rectangular sections of your favorite designs and laminate them for durability. Punch a hole at the top and tie a small ribbon. These bookmarks make great classroom rewards, stocking stuffers, or reading incentives for kids during winter break.

10. 3D Winter Scene Shadow Boxes

Create a snowy diorama using your printable coloring pages. Color and cut out your winter images, then layer them inside a shallow box or shoebox. Use cotton balls for snow and glue in your cutouts at different depths to create a 3D effect. Add fairy lights for an extra winter glow. It’s an amazing craft that looks like a real winter wonderland on display.

11. Classroom Bulletin Board Display

Teachers can use students’ finished winter coloring pages to decorate bulletin boards. Arrange them in a big “Winter Wonderland” scene — maybe with a paper snow hill, trees, and animals. Each child’s artwork becomes part of a larger winter mural that brightens up the classroom. Add cotton balls for snow and glitter accents for sparkle.

12. DIY Wrapping Paper

Need wrapping paper for small winter gifts? Print out several coloring pages, color them in, and use them to wrap presents. The hand-colored designs give gifts a personal and festive look. This is perfect for teacher gifts, small toys, or baked treats. Add a ribbon and tag made from another coloring sheet for a matching set.

13. Winter-Themed Mobiles

Hang your printable coloring sheets from the ceiling for a fun winter decoration. Cut out finished snowflakes, mittens, and penguins, then hang them from a hanger or stick using string. When they spin in the air, they look like falling snowflakes. This simple craft looks lovely in classrooms, bedrooms, or play areas.

14. Storytime Illustrations

After coloring, have kids use their winter coloring pages to illustrate their own winter stories. Maybe their snowman comes to life or their penguin takes a trip to the North Pole. Staple the coloring pages together to make a handmade storybook. This activity helps boost creativity and makes reading and writing even more fun.

15. Winter Party Placemats

If you’re hosting a winter party or classroom celebration, use your printable coloring sheets as placemats. Kids can color them before the event or at the table as a quiet activity. Laminate them afterward for reusable winter-themed placemats that can be used all season long.

These free printable winter coloring pages are perfect for keeping kids busy during cold days or for adding creativity to classroom lessons and family time. Each PDF coloring sheet brings a bit of warmth to the winter season and can be turned into crafts, decorations, or gifts.
