Step 1 - Design your Window Drawing
Design your window drawing
It all starts with an idea. You can use our template generator, draw freehand or download and print one of our special window drawing templates. Stick the template on the window, start tracing and watch your windows transform into a festive masterpiece.
Note: if you want the drawing to be readable from the outside, stick the mirror image on the outside. You can then trace the drawing from the inside.
Step 2 - Choose the right chalk marker

All you need to make a window drawing is a nice clean window and a good chalk marker. The edding chalk markers have water-based liquid chalk, so you can easily remove the window drawing with a wet cloth.

When you have your design and chalk marker to hand, you can start drawing. Not quite sure about your window drawing skills? Karin and Cynthia show you through a tutorial how they make a window drawing, as well as a few additional handy hints and tips!
Step 4 - Take a picture
Take a picture
When you’ve finished your Window Drawing take a clear photograph ready for uploading or posting.
It is best to take a photo in the evening (without flash), when you are subjected to less sunlight and reflections on the window.
Tip:
To ensure that all window drawings are nicely connected, it is best to photograph a little extra space around your window. Think of the frame and a piece of wall. In this way the houses and drawings are connected to each other.
Step 5 - Upload your Window Drawing
